Elizabeta: Zlata doba

Slovenski opis filma:

Anglija, 1585. Katoliška Španija je pod okriljem Filipa II. postala najmočnejša evropska država. Ker mu protestantska Anglija predstavlja veliko grožnjo, namerava prevzeti tudi angleški prestol. Angleško kraljico Elizabeto I. medtem njen svetovalec Sir Walsingham sili, naj se poroči, saj bo sicer prestol nasledila njena sestrična Marija, kraljica Škotske. Toda Elizabeta je odločno proti. Ko jo na dvoru obišče pomorščak Walter Raleigh in ji prinese dragocenosti iz Novega sveta, se med njima splete nenavadno prijateljstvo.

Originalni opis filma:

Two faiths, two empires, two rulers - colliding in 1588. Papist Spain wants to bring down the heretic Elizabeth. Philip is building an armada but needs a rationale to attack. With covert intrigue, Spain sets a trap for the Queen and her principal secretary, Walsingham, using as a pawn Elizabeth's cousin Mary Stuart, who's under house arrest in the North. The trap springs, and the armada sets sail, to rendezvous with French ground forces and to attack. During these months, the Virgin Queen falls in love with Walter Raleigh, keeping him close to court and away from the sea and America. Is treachery or heroism at his heart? Does loneliness await her passionate majesty?
