Review of The Queen and I (2008) by Xanthe S — 26 Apr 2011
Two Iranian women - one, the70-year old Queen of Iran exiled in Paris, the other, a 40-something Iranian filmmaker living in Sweden - construct a moving dialogue through interviews. Personal troubles, at once personal and political, intertwine.
Both share a longing to return to their native land. It is a moving documentary of how two vastly different people can find middle ground and hope for an Iran that could be. Excellent film.
