of one of the most iconic Queens in history. Queen Kristina of Sweden, raised
as a prince at her father’s request, is thrust into a world of conflict. Faced
with the austere, fiercely conservative Lutheran values of the times, she
begins her reign in confrontation – opting for education for all her subjects
and an end to the Thirty Years War. Pulled between the Lutheran and Catholic
forces, conspiring for her allegiance, she also faces an internal struggle.
Falling deeply in love with her lady in waiting, the stunning Ebba Sparre, she
is left confused and wanting. As the forces converge, Kristina is pushed
towards making one of the greatest and most scandalous decisions in history.
THE GIRL
KING paints a portrait of the brilliant, extravagant Kristina of Sweden, queen
from age six, who fights the conservative forces that are against her ideas to
modernize Sweden and who have no tolerance for her awakening sexuality.
So if you are a fan of the medieval era, and wants to see how history will unfold right before your eyes, this is the best movie that I would recommend you to see and your family. Directed by Mika Kaurismaki, The Girl King will be showing in theaters beginning June 1st from Solar Pictures,
