In the changing religious and political tides of late 16th century Europe, Elizabeth finds her rule challenged by the Spanish King Philip II, who is building a sea-dominating armada to ferry his powerful army to England and restore the country to Catholicism.
Preparing to go to war to defend her kingdom, Elizabeth struggles to balance ancient royal duties with an unexpected vulnerability in her love for Raleigh. But he remains forbidden for a queen who has sworn body and soul to her country.
As she charts her course abroad, her trusted advisor, Sir Francis Walsingham uncovers an assassination plot that could topple the throne. But by unmasking traitors that include Elizabeth's own cousin Mary Stuart he unknowingly sets England up for destruction. (Synopsis from IMD).
I'm looking forward to seeing this having enjoyed Elizabeth several years ago when it was released.
