Queen Victoria - Geheimnisse einer Königin (Dokumentation 2001)

A concise and informative biography offers an overview of Queen Victoria's life from childhood to her death. Queen Victoria reigned over the United Kingdom for 63 years—an era in which the sun never set on the British Empire. More than 100 years later, new research reveals little-known secrets about a queen who became a symbol of the Victorian age. The documentary, supported by English and German descendants of the Queen, focuses on the complexities of the royal family tree and Victoria's relationship with her German relatives—right up to the hostilities that preceded the First World War.

Under her rule, the Empire reached the zenith of its power. An entire era was named after her, and the Windsors still enjoy a prestige built upon Victoria's foundation. Biographies of Victoria fill entire libraries. Yet perhaps the most fascinating chapters about her have yet to be written. Victoria was different from how most of us imagine her: she was very emotional and vulnerable, open and honest. She confided her deepest thoughts to her diary. Almost all biographers rely on Victoria's diaries, which were published a few years after her death. However, few biographers point out that the diaries known today are largely forgeries. The genuine records were burned to prevent personal details from being made public. Ironically, Victoria's last secretary, her youngest daughter Beatrice, assumed the role of censor. Shortly after Victoria's death, she burned all the diaries that might portray her mother in an unflattering light for the family and rewrote the missing passages herself under her mother's name. Only the diaries of her personal physician and her bequest shed light on the unknown chapters of her life.
