Queen of Spain

Directed by Stephen Lowenstein

With Russell Binns, Natasha Alderslade, Harley Joel Emmitt, Kenny Fullwood and Karen Lewis

Set on the eve of the First World War, the film follows a young boy who discovers a Queen of Spain fritillary, one of the rarest butterflies ever seen in the British Isles. His encounter reflects early 20th-century attitudes toward butterfly collecting. The story draws on the natural history of a species rarely recorded in Britain.
