Victoria & Abdul (2017)
Im Jahr 1887 feiert die britische Königin Victoria mit einem prachtvollen Fest ihr 50. Thronjubiläum. Während der Feierlichkeiten lernt die Monarchin den jungen indischen Bediensteten Abdul Karim kennen, der extra anlässlich des Jubiläums nach Großbritannien gereist ist. Nur kurze Zeit später nimmt die exzentische Königin den jungen Inder in ihr Gefolge auf, was ihre Familie und ihre Berater ebenso verblüfft wie vor den Kopf stößt. Doch bald schon entwickelt sich zwischen dem Diener und der Monarchin durch lange und inspirierende Gespräche eine tiefe Freundschaft, durch die Victoria, die unter anderem auch den Titel Kaiserin von Indien trägt, viel über die ihr fremde Kultur von Abduls Heimat lernt. Die außergewöhnliche Beziehung der beiden erzeugt jedoch auch schnell Missgunst und Neid unter den übrigen Menschen am Hofe...
