Born a King

(2019)Directed by Agustí Villaronga103 minDrama, History

Fourteen-year-old Prince Faisal (Abdullah Ali) wants to do right by his father, Prince Abd Al-Aziz, who sends him in 1919 from the deserts of Arabia to London to secure the formation of his country. Abroad, he is guided by Philby (Ed Skrein) and Laurence of Arabia (Laurence Fox), and brought before George V (James Fleet) and Princess Mary (Hermione Corfield). Agustí Villaronga watches the boy through the eyes of a stranger in a very different world.
