The Iron Lady

La storia

Chester Square, oggi. L'ottantenne Margaret Thatcher, ex Primo Ministro britannico, affetta da una crescente demenza senile, parla con il marito Denis, morto da anni, mentre resiste alla necessità di liberarsi del guardaroba dell'uomo e insieme combatte strenuamente la perdita del suo immenso potere e l'inesorabile passare del tempo. Nota per la sua politica ultraconservatrice e per le scelte controverse in campo nazionale e internazionale, la Thatcher - racconta il film - è stata una donna che all'ambizione politica ha immolato se stessa e la sua vita privata.
