King Charles appears in a new 90-minute Prime Video documentary, Finding Harmony: A King's Vision, which examines his long-standing environmental campaigning and the ideas behind his Harmony philosophy. The film is a collaboration between The King's Foundation and Amazon MGM Studios and is narrated by Kate Winslet. It uses new footage and archive material to trace the development of his views and personal practices at Highgrove. The documentary also links the film to a forthcoming republication of his 2010 book, Harmony: A New Way Of Looking At Our World.
What the documentary shows:
- The King says he “was not going to be diverted” from the course he set on environmental issues and reflects that the world is “rapidly going backwards” on climate and biodiversity.
- Archive footage includes a 1986 remark about talking to plants, which Winslet says has haunted him, and other family home-movie moments featuring the King and his children.
- Viewers see personal scenes at Highgrove, including the King collecting eggs from his chickens and discussing potato varieties he prefers for baking.
- The film describes the origins and scientific foundations of the Harmony philosophy and shows The King's Foundation projects at Dumfries House that apply the approach to community regeneration, sustainable textiles and traditional skills.
- The King and Queen will attend a premiere at Windsor Castle, which Buckingham Palace says is believed to be the first global movie premiere held at a royal residence.
Summary:
The documentary presents Charles's environmental commitment alongside personal and archival material and frames his Harmony ideas as central to his public work. The film arrives on Prime Video on February 6, and the King's 2010 book will be republished in March to coincide with the release.
