The unique story of love that crosses generations, The Queen of Sheba's Pearls is coming to DVD February 22nd, 2006. A coming of age film that deals with the struggles of a family touched by tragedy, The Queen of Sheba's Pearls is moving, atmospheric and at times, humourous.
Beautiful cinematography is the signature of this period drama set in post-war England, with a rich palate of sepias and winter tones. Sweden based, English Director Colin Nutley ensures an interesting cross over of culture.
An Art House film with broad appeal, The Queen of Sheba's Pearls tells the story of young Jack (Rollo Weeks, Girl with a Pearl Earring) following the inexplicable death of his beloved mother on his 8th birthday. His 16th birthday in 1952, is marked by the death of the King. As Jack celebrates his birthday surrounded by his family, a stranger appears at the door - a very beautiful woman, who bears resemblance to his dead mother, and whose presence would turn Jacks world upside down.
