Uncrowned Queen of the Desert

Deon 2022-04-18 09:01:20

The lakeside castle with swans playing in the water in London can't trap her bohemian pursuit of freedom

Tehran's ancient and dilapidated Tower of Silence cannot leave behind the lingering sorrows of her and her lover

The madness of the Ottoman Empire can't take away the eternal love that once covered the vicissitudes of life

The elegant woman in the floor-length dress on the white camel walking slowly is proud and independent

No matter whether she wins or loses, or is the leader and chief, she has solved the unimaginable difficulties and dangers with the long sleeves and good dance she has learned in this life.

The military made things difficult, Heil was imprisoned, nostalgic for historical sites, reminiscent of the past and the present, feeling the various customs of the tribe,

Everything here makes her braver and more determined to march forward against the wind,

Talking and laughing, I know heroes from all walks of life,

The borders of countries are delineated vertically and horizontally,

She is the uncrowned king of the desert: GERTRUDE BELL

P.s. The legend of her life is gorgeous, but she is too white lotus in the movie, far from the ups and downs of her real life.
