Synopsis
After getting married to Prince Charles, the future King of England, in 1981, Diana Spencer soon became one of the most popular celebrities in the entire world due to her connection with the wider public and humanitarian work. However, this newfound fame came with a price and soon her private life, relationship with her children and problematic marriage were being exposed and called into question by the media, resulting in sudden tragedy. This documentary uses the very medium that caused so much strife in Diana’s life, media journalism and paparazzi footage, to re-frame her story and help us see a more authentic but troubled side of one of the royal family’s most famous members. As well as being a portrait of one woman’s life, the film also serves as a window into late 20th-century history and the social politics of that era in the United Kingdom.
