"Provocative, hugely entertaining - unmissable" **** The Daily Mail
"The Queen is not merely the year's best British film, it is one of the year's most intriguing, provocative films from anywhere" **** The Daily Telegraph
A taut, intimate and revealing portrait of Queen Elizabeth II and the Royal Family in turmoil during the days immediately following the death of Princess Diana.

When news of the death of Princess Diana, undoubtedly the most famous woman in the world, breaks upon a shocked and disbelieving British public, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II retreats behind the walls of Balmoral Castle with her family, unable to comprehend the public response to the tragedy. For Tony blair, the popular and newly elected Prime Minister, the people's need for reassurance and support from their leaders is essential. As the unprecedented and outpouring of emotion grows ever stronger, Blair must find a way to reconnect the Queen with the British public.
