Parent and Baby Screening

A man and a woman in tudor dress gaze into each other's eyes at a banquet, as the woman touches the man's nose.

Alicia Vikander plays Katherine Parr, the last wife of Henry VIII (Jude Law), in this twisting historical tale of a woman fighting to change history. 

In blood-soaked Tudor England, Katherine Parr, the sixth and last wife of King Henry VIII, is named Regent while tyrant Henry is fighting overseas. Katherine has done everything she can to push for a new future based on her radical Protestant beliefs.

When the paranoid King returns, he turns his fury on the radicals, charging Katherine’s childhood friend with treason and burning her at the stake. Horrified and grieving, but forced to deny it, Katherine finds herself fighting for her own survival. 

With the hope for a future free of tyranny at risk, will Katherine submit to the inevitable for the sake of King and country?
