Features: Four outstanding women, two pairs of rivals: one is the world's most beautiful princess who successfully portrays the modern Cinderella story, and one is the symbol of high power in the British Empire. When tradition confronts challenges, tragedies of fate's cruelty and helplessness take turns to unfold. VS one who interprets the definition of "sexiness" of that era, and one who carries the banner of a long-planned feminist movement. The coquettish "sex kitten" and the erudite female scholar coexist in the same timeline: either becoming the prey of men's imagination or guiding women forward. Diana vs. Elizabeth VS Bardot vs. de Beauvoir, showing you two ideological battlegrounds.
