Through archival and personal footage, this documentary illuminates the inner life of the adored Princess of Wales, as told by Diana herself.

To some, Diana, Princess of Wales, was an adored 'people's princess' shaking up the stuffiness of the monarchy with her glamor and humanitarian work.

To others, the princess was a rebellious, reticent young woman who was a drain on her husband Charles and threatened the stability of the British royal family.

In 1991, Diana orchestrated a series of secret interviews at Kensington Palace, recorded by a close friend.

These interviews would form the basis of a renowned, tell-all biography of Diana's life, published in 1992 and sanctioned by the princess.

This documentary draws from those recordings to create an illuminating overview of Diana's youth, her courtship with Prince Charles, and her tragic fate.

Highlighting the discrepancy between Diana's glamorous public-facing life and her inner torments marked by severe bulimia, depression, and suicide attempts, the film is an eloquent portrait of the late princess.
