Acclaimed British auteur Stephen Frears reunites with his Philomena star, Academy Award winner Judi Dench, in this charming dramedy chronicling the friendship between Queen Victoria and an Indian clerk named Abdul Karim.
The light, comedic film recounts the fascinating and true tale of a penniless young Indian man, Abdul Karim. Chosen to present a ceremonial coin on behalf of British India to the Queen as a part of her Golden Jubilee in 1887, Adbul travels from his home to London.
