The Crown
- PART I OF TRILOGY INCLUDING: THE CROWN,
International Emmy® Awards Nominee for TV Movie/Mini-Series 2006.
Charlotte Ekeblad – thirty something and married with two kids – is at a crossroads in her life. She has just given up a successful career working for the environment to move to Africa where her husband has been stationed when she receives an offer she cannot refuse – the post of Minister of Environment in the Social Democrat government. Charlotte faces difficult new challenges both on the job and at home, where her husband adjusts to his changing role.
A series in four parts based on Hanne-Vibeke Holst’s best-selling novel, The Crown is a contemporary story about political intrigue, the use (and abuse) of media, and what really goes on in the corridors of power. But most of all, it is the story of a modern woman who has made a fateful choice and must struggle to combine family-life with a career in the spotlight.
