Diana's Wedding
Comedy/Drama, Norwegian with English subtitles, Rated M, 90 mins
It’s July 29, 1981 and in the majestic St Paul’s Cathedral in London, Lady Diana Spencer marries Prince Charles.
The very same day, in the canteen of a Norwegian factory, newly-weds Liv and Terje are having their wedding party. In the pram beside them is their new-born daughter, Diana.
And, like her famous namesake, Diana will also be dealing with chaos in her life. It's through Diana's eyes that we witness the rollercoaster of her parent’s marriage and what she learns about the nature of being in love.
