Heart of an Empire, as mawkish as it might sound, is a sweetly clear blue sky piece of filmmaking, and encapsulates a rare breath of gee-whiz, irony-and-politic-free perspective that could do the world some good.

Heart of an Empire is a funny and touching love letter to a group of men and women far more complex than they initially appear.
