The Lady is released in cinemas across the UK and Ireland on 30th December 2011
THE LADY is the extraordinary story of Aung San Suu Kyi and her husband, Michael Aris.
It is also the epic story of the peaceful quest of the woman who is at the core of Burma’s democracy movement. Despite distance, long separations, and a dangerously hostile regime, their love endures until the very end.
A story of devotion and human understanding set against a backdrop of political turmoil that continues today.
THE LADY was written over a period of three years by Rebecca Frayn. Interviews with key figures in Aung San Suu Kyi’s entourage enabled her to reconstruct for the first time the true story of Burma’s national heroine.
“Suu Kyi’s struggle is one of the most extraordinary examples of civil courage in Asia in recent decades.”
The Norwegian Nobel Committee (1991)
“In physical stature she is petite and elegant, but in moral stature she is a giant. Big men are scared of her. Armed to the teeth and they still run scared.”
Desmond Tutu
“She is a hero of mine and a source of inspiration.”
Barack Obama
“Aung San Suu Kyi is an inspiration for all of us who believe in freedom of speech, democracy and human rights.”
David Cameron
“Your determination and courage continue to inspire friends of freedom around the world”
