Director: Karim Aïnouz. With Jude Law, Alicia Vikander. Runtime: 121 mins
​
Katherine Parr (Alicia Vikander), the sixth and last wife of King Henry VIII, is named Regent while Henry (Jude Law) is fighting overseas. Katherine has done everything she can to promote her radical Protestant beliefs, but when the ailing and paranoid King returns, he turns his fury on the radicals, charging Katherine’s childhood friend with treason and having her burned at the stake. Forced to hide her grief and horror, Katherine finds herself fighting for her own survival.
Everyone holds their breath – will the queen to slip up and lose her head like her
predecessors?

WHY WATCH THIS FILM?
It’s Jude Law as you’ve never seen him before.
​
“Although Vikander is centre stage for much of the film, it is Law’s scene-stealing turn as an ailing and floundering figure at the end of his life which grabs much of the attention. Clearly he is relishing the task and turns in an edgy performance
of mental undercurrents, menace and ultimately darkness.” Eye for Film
​
“Firebrand exceeds in capturing the way mundanity can slip so easily into terror; how a feast or a jest, caught beautifully by Hélène Louvart’s naturalistic cinematography and populated by Michael O’Connor’s richly detailed costumes, can descend into hell at the turn of one man’s emotions.” The Independent
​
“This is a vividly constructed drama, expertly played.” The Times
