Description:

Set in 19th-century Siam, the film follows Anna Loenowens, a determined Welsh widow who becomes governess and English tutor to King Mongkut's many wives and children. As Anna navigates the complexities of the royal court, she clashes with the King due to their differing personalities. Her task becomes critical when a diplomatic reception is planned for European diplomats who view the King unfavorably. To improve relations and the royal family's reputation through English language, customs, and etiquette, Anna overcomes considerable obstacles as she works towards making this event a success in Siam's history.
