This will be her story spanning through seven decades, seen through the lenses of the world’s greatest photographers as they created an iconographic image that remains unique, while everything around her, culture, society and politics, changes at the speed of light. It is based on Paola Calvetti’s book “Elisabetta II: Ritratto di regina” (Elizabeth II: Portrait of the Queen).
The documentary is directed by one of the world’s most sought-after photographers, Fabrizio Ferri.

I preferred to shoot their ‘portraits’ in the studio, with a pictorial light, in a black “box”, portraying them dressed in black. Their stories, their emotions in recalling them, their experiences with the Queen which they shared with me – Fabrizio Ferri.

Charles Dance will embody the great legends of photography like Cecil Beaton, Bryan Adams, Lord Snowdon, Jousuf Karsch, also through their own words, written in diaries like Cecil Beaton’s memoires. – Paola Calvetti

It’s not just a narrative voice, but a real presence that forms the backbone of the film – Fabrizio Ferri.
