The Lady of Heaven is an upcoming epic historical drama directed by EK with John Stephenson and written by Sheikh Alhabib. It is the first film in history to tell the remarkable story of Lady Fatima, the Daughter of the Prophet Muhammad. The film was produced by Enlightened Kingdom.[1]
Plot[edit]
The heart-wrenching journey of Lady Fatima, the daughter of Prophet Muhammad. Separated by 1400 years, an Iraqi child, in the midst of a war-torn country, learns the importance and power of patience. After losing his mother, the child finds himself in a new home, where a loving grandmother narrates the historical story of The Lady and how her suffering as the first victim of terror spun out of control into the 21st century.[2] [3]

Production[edit]
Filming took place in Georgia between August and October 2019 in the cities of Tbilisi, Rustavi, and mainly Vaziani where the majority of the shooting took place.[4] [5] [6] It took the production team over 2 months to build the sets for Mecca and Medina as imagined in 622 AD. It was essential to ensure historical accuracy in every aspect, so everything was meticulously researched by the production company, Enlightened Kingdom.
Stephenson believes the film will cater for the appetite of Muslims and Western audiences alike, stating:
It is a wonderful epic story full of Shakespearean intrigue, ‘Lawrence of Arabia’ meets ‘Game of Thrones’, an innovative way of seeing the origins of Islam and the Holy Figures from the point of view of our young modern-day hero Laith. We will be drawn into a world that sees the history of the religion’s birth as a wonderful action-packed story full of color. Juxtaposed against the stark colorless reality of the present-day war- torn Middle East it will be an innovative cinematic experience full of revelations, magic and incredible performances all set in and against the beautiful and dramatic landscape of eastern landscape of Georgia.
In accordance with Islamic tradition, during the making of this film no individual represented a Holy Personality. The performances of the Holy Personalities were achieved through a unique synthesis of actors, in-camera effects, lighting and visual effects.[7]
