The film Léon, follows an Italian-American hitman of the same name. Natalie Portman debuted in this film, acting as Mathilda, a 12 year old girl whose family was killed by corrupt DEA agents. Léon reluctantly sheltered her while the officers are searching for the missing drugs. The rest of the story follows Mathilda learning about how to be a hitman, preparing to exact vengeance for the death of her whole family.

Correction

Um actually … Her vengeance was not for her whole family, it was only for her younger brother, as she wasn’t on good terms with the rest of her family.
