Helena Deluvina Diakonoff (Gala), was born in Russia, and is admitted in a sanatorium in Switzerland, after being diagnosed with tuberculosis. Here she met Paul Éluard. Away from the influence of family, the couple’s love flourished. Gala became pregnant with their only child. Éluard disappeared, on a self-imposed exile to the Orient. Their relationship ended.
