She represents a different generation to Laszlo and Erzsebet (Felicity Jones) and consequently handles her trauma differently.

Harry ends up walking to find Zsofia sitting in a conservative black bathing suit by the river.

In fact, the whole sequence is bizarrely covert considering how blunt and apparent Laszlos assault is on-screen.

And yet, we never see Erzsebet check in with Zsofia and ask her about what really took place.

It is unknown whether Zsofia ever spoke about the events, or if it was a recurring thing.

It feels like Harry’s actions are pushed aside for other plotlines.
