The Barefoot Emperor

In this irreverent sequel to King of the Belgians, director Jessica Woodworth and Peter Brosens follow the next chapter in the life of Nicolas, the hapless monarch who's still somehow managed to ascend to European imperial heights, all while sporting his signature bare feet. Filmed on the stunning Brijuni Islands, The Barefoot Emperor is a sidesplitting comedy that lovingly lampoons the intricacies of power and prestige, just as its predecessor did with gusto.
