Summary
Powerful independent full length feature film about the life of Mary Tudor, Henry VIII's first child. She was loved, she was a princess, heir to the throne - but the childhood fairy tale turned to a lifelong nightmare for Mary. When her father divorced her mother and married Anne Boleyn, Mary became an outcast and a threat to the Protestant succession. By a twist of fate, on the death of her brother, she became queen at last in 1553, but her attempts to make England Catholic again were a disaster for her and for England..History has called her "Bloody Mary" for the burning of the Protestants, but how fair is this? This film paints another picture, of a woman true to her beliefs, pushed towards a terrible psychological disintegration...Runner up Marbella Film Festival 2008
