About the film

The story unfolds through the memories of an elderly Thatcher, as moments from her extraordinary life return to her. Her recollections take her back to her youth, her modest upbringing, her relationship with her husband Denis, and the years she spent fighting for a place in Parliament. At every step, she had to prove that neither her background nor her gender could stand in the way of her ambitions. Once in power, Thatcher faces economic turmoil, strikes, fierce political opposition and the Falklands War. Her uncompromising approach earns her the nickname “the Iron Lady”, but her determination also comes at a personal cost, gradually distancing her from those around her. Behind the image of the formidable politician is a woman who has sacrificed much for her career. As the boundaries between past and present begin to blur, Thatcher confronts memories of her greatest achievements alongside family losses, loneliness and the enduring presence of her late husband Denis.
