Alla vigilia di Natale dell'anno 1183 alla corte di Enrico II la successione al trono scatena odi e stringe alleanze tra i figli del sovrano. Tutti aspirano alla corona per motivi differenti: Riccardo Cuor di Leone è mosso dalla sete di conquista, Goffredo cerca la gloria, Giovanni Senza Terra è accecato dall'avidità. Eleonora di Aquitania, l'astuta e manipolatrice moglie di Enrico II, cerca di usare i suoi figli contro il marito che la tiene prigioniera nelle torri del castello, complottando l'abdicazione di Enrico II in favore del suo preferito Riccardo. Ma Giovanni, primogenito e legittimo erede al trono, è deciso a tenere per sé l'intero regno: insieme a Filippo, re di Francia, ha messo a punto un piano ingegnoso per avere tutto e subito.
The Lion in Winter
King Henry II (Patrick Stewart) keeps his wife, Eleanor (Glenn Close) locked away in the towers because of her frequent attempts to overthrow him. With Eleanor out of the way he can have his dalliances with his young mistress (Yuliya Vysotskaya). Needless to say the queen is not pleased, although she still has affection for the king. Working through her sons, she plots the king's demise and the rise of her second and preferred son, Richard (Andrew Howard), to the throne. The youngest son, John (Rafe Spall), an overweight buffoon and the only son holding his father's affection is the king's choice after the death of his first son, young Henry. But John is also overly eager for power and is willing to plot his father's demise with middle brother, Geoffrey (John Light) and the young king of France, Phillip (Jonathan Rhys Meyers). Geoffrey, of course sees his younger brother's weakness and sees that route as his path to power. Obviously political and court intrigue ensues
