25 November – 8 December, 2016

A United Kingdom is the extraordinary true story of one of the great forbidden romances of the 20th century. In 1947, sparks fly when jazz lovers Prince Seretse Khama (David Oyelowo) and Ruth Williams (Rosamund Pike) meet at a Missionary Society dance. Their whirlwind romance and subsequent marriage are met with fierce opposition from their families and the British and South African governments. Their interracial union causes a further stir when Seretse returns home to assume his royal duties. Amma Asante’s follow up to Belle is a rousing yet intimate romantic drama.

    With terrific warmth and idealism – and irresistible storytelling relish – director Amma Asante gives us a romantic true story
