The remarkable true story of one woman and her government’s pursuit of freedom for their country - against the brutal occupation by Hitler’s Third Reich. This feature-length documentary film now available on DVD in this special-edition boxset, is the previously untold account of Charlotte of Luxembourg - a wife; mother of six children and head of state of the tiny duchy of Luxembourg. Charlotte became a Royal propagandist in pearls who inspired a nation through the power of radio, reaching her people in their darkest hour. The film reveals a powerful truth: ordinary people will endure hardship, imprisonment, even death, if they have someone to believe in, to keep their hopes alive. The feature length documentary combines vivid eyewitness testimony with dramatic reconstruction and unique, previously unseen, colour archive. The DVD contains the film in 3 feature-length versions on one disc: English (narrator, Geraldine James) Luxembourgish (Sascha Ley) French (Stephane Bern) Bonus "extras" include exclusive footage of Curtis Roosevelt meeting Grand-Duke Jean at Fischbach Castle - and additional interview clips not featured in the main theatrical release of the film. Charlotte: A Royal at War had its international Royal premiere at BAFTA, London, in Autumn 2008. "A fascinating and comprehensively researched film that unveils new facts and archive material that even manages to surprise many Luxembourgers." (352-Luxembourg News) "Léif Lëtzebuerger" est aussi un petit bijou esthétique...fait avec élégance et intelligence." (D’ Lëtzebuerger Land)
