LENA DUNHAM stars in the film TREASURE, directed by German filmmaker JULIA VON HEINZ.

In this interview, Lena talks about working in the movie and about her character.

A father-daughter road trip set in 1990s Poland, TREASURE follows Ruth (Lena Dunham), an American music journalist, and her father, Edek (Stephen Fry), a charmingly stubborn Holocaust survivor, on a journey to his homeland.

While Ruth is eager to make sense of her family’s past, Edek embarks on the trip with his own agenda.

This emotional, funny culture clash of two New Yorkers exploring post-socialist Poland is a powerful example of how reconnecting with family and the past can be an unexpected treasure.

TREASURE is in theaters nationwide on June 14th.
