Henry V (2023x3)

Fresh to the throne, King Henry V launches England into a bloody war with France.

Kit Harington plays the title role in Shakespeare’s thrilling study of nationalism, war and the psychology of power, directed by Max Webster, which explores what it means to be English and our relationship to Europe. Do we ever get the leaders we deserve? Filmed live at the Donmar Warehouse in 2022.
