BORNAKING_CARTEL_ONLINE_AF-English-3.jpg

BORN A KING tells the extraordinary true story of 13 year old FAISAL, the younger son of the first King of Saudi Arabia, who in 1919 was sent on a diplomatic mission. In the frenetic post-WWI atmosphere, young FAISAL becomes the first Saudi Royal to visit the UK on a politically precarious trip lasting 5 months. FAISAL ultimately became the hugely popular King of Saudi Arabia (1964 - 1975), implementing modernization and reform.
