Firebrand

In a blood-soaked kingdom, accomplished Katherine Parr (Alicia Vikander) becomes the sixth wife of King Henry VIII (Jude Law) at great personal risk - all her predecessors are vanquished or dead - and when Henry leaves her to rule during his absence overseas, he lays out a dangerous path for her.  Suspected of sympathy to radical Protestants, Katherine comes under increasing scrutiny from Henry on his return, and must unleash her own scheme for survival.

Directed by Karim Aïnouz and adapted from Elizabeth Fremantle’s novel The Queen’s Gambit.
