The Favourite

How 18th century English court life resonates in 21st century corridors of power.

The British film The Favourite bagged ten nominations for this year's Oscars. David Amanor asked Ahmed Zaki of 大象传媒 Arabic, Yana Litvinova of 大象传媒 Russian and Ibrat Safo of 大象传媒 Uzbek what interest a costume drama about an 18th century queen holds for their audiences.
