It tells the story of historian, novelist and British agent Gertrude Bell (1868-1926), who played an important role in establishing a new order in the Middle East in the 1920s. Bell had been poorly educated as a girl, so it was difficult to find a suitable partner in Britain, so she went to Tehran. After she fell in love with the gambling-addicted diplomat Henry Cadogan (Henry Cadogan), but the development did not go smoothly, Bell decided to give up her personal life and devote herself to the exploration of the surrounding area. Before the fall of the Ottoman Empire, Bell learned languages in the Middle East, translated literary works, and met people in Cairo, Basra and Baghdad. Bell won people's trust because of his courage and respect. Seemingly destined to serve as a bridge between the British Empire and the countries of the Middle East, Bell helped to draw the borders of various countries in the Middle East after World War I. At this time, love entered her life again. Werner Herzog used the vast desert as the background to narrate the legendary epic of the "Queen of the Desert".
