Olympic athlete and model; As an Olympic high diver on the Czech team in Atlanta in 1996, Andrea Absolonová injured her spine while diving from the 10-meter platform. Although she competed in Sydney in 2000 she never quite recovered her full abilities and soon turned to modelling.

When Andrea was in her early 20s, a photographer persuaded Andrea to pose nude while shooting for a billboard advertisement. This quickly led to a flourishing career posing nude and performing in adult films. Her screen name was Lea de Mae, and her healthy good looks ensured international success. Lea performed in scores of scenes.

In July 2004 Andrea began to experience headaches and problems with her left eye. Medical scans revealed a brain tumor, which was removed through surgery in August, followed by radiation and chemotherapy. The treatment was bad enough, but the pains in her back and head continued as well. By November the pains were so extreme that only high doses of painkillers provided any relief. Her left eye would roll up and her left limbs were sluggish and trembled. Further scans revealed additional tumors. Two more surgeries relieved the pain somewhat but were otherwise ineffective. She had glioblastoma, a very aggressive form of cancer, and the treatments never got ahead of it fast enough. By early December, Andrea was running a high fever and hallucinating. Then, after a couple of days of mild improvement, she died on December 9 2004, Andrea passed away at the age of 27 from the brain cancer she fought for 5 months.
Her Body (Czech: Její tělo) is a 2023 Czech-Slovak film by filmmaker Natália Císařovská. The film is a biopic of Andrea Absolonová. It was Natália's debut feature film.
