Orlando

At Queen Elizabeth’s court, a young noble defies the passage of time, passionately devoted to poetry and the world. In this adventure that stretches from the streets of seventeenth-century London to the mysterious lands of the Ottoman Empire, the boundaries of gender and identity gradually blur. With that ironic distance she creates by looking directly at the audience from the silver screen, Sally Potter brings this centuries-long aesthetic and philosophical transformation to life on screen in her own unique language.
