A Royal Affair15

A gripping 18th century historical drama and epic romance about the love triangle between a German doctor, the Queen of Denmark, and her deranged king. When doctor Johann Friedrich Struensee accompanies the King of Denmark on a year-long trip around Europe, he gains the trust of the psychologically unstable monarch and is made his personal physician. But Struensee wants more: together with Queen Caroline Mathilde, who falls in love with the handsome and assertive medic, he increasingly takes over state affairs… Based on actual historical events, this drama of a man committed to the grand ideas of European enlightenment, is also an allegory about the conflict of progressive and reactionary forces.
