Englishn Summary:

The Girl in the Café is a British made-for-television drama film directed by David Yates, written by Richard Curtis and produced by Hilary Bevan Jones. The film is produced by the independent production company Tightrope Pictures and was originally screened on BBC One in the United Kingdom on 25 June 2005. It was also shown in the United States on cable television station Home Box Office on the same day. Bill Nighy portrays the character of Lawrence, with Kelly Macdonald portraying Gina. Nighy and Macdonald had previously starred together in the 2003 BBC serial State of Play, which was also directed by Yates and produced by Bevan-Jones. The Girl in the Café's casting director is Fiona Weir who, at the time, was also the casting director for the Harry Potter films, the last four of which Yates directed.

The film tells the story of Lawrence (Bill Nighy), a civil servant working for the Chancellor of the Exchequer (Ken Stott), who falls in love with Gina (Kelly Macdonald), a young woman whom he meets by chance in a London café. Lawrence takes Gina to a G8 summit in Reykjavík, Iceland, where she confronts the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom (Corin Redgrave) over the issue of third world debt and poverty in Africa, much to Lawrence's embarrassment and the anger of his employers. However, he realises that she is right and tries to help persuade the Chancellor and others at the summit to do something about the issues concerned.

Hungarian Summary:

Lawrence, a magányos hivatalnok a pénzügyminiszter bizalmi embere. Egy nap, társkeresés útján megismerkedik Ginával, a rejtélyes szépségű lánnyal, s ettől alapjaiban felborul az élete. Amikor a kormányküldöttséggel Reykjavikba utazik egy nemzetközi program megvitatására, a lány is elkíséri. A mindig szótlan Gina váratlan lépést tesz: nyilvános helyen szócsatába bocsátkozik a pénzügyminiszterrel, akit érzéketlennek nevez. Lawrence bizalma meginog, Gináról ugyanis egyre különösebb dolgok derülnek ki.
