The King of a Neo-Victorian Britain must have his rebellious daughter killed to prevent her being heir to the thrown. Princess Ruby is an illegitimate daughter to one of her father's many courtesans over the years and plans to smear her father's legacy when in power. Under the pretense of a date, Morris, hired killer and airship captain is given the task of removing the princess for good, but she knows more than he does... Set in the iconic Hampton Court Palace, 'To Kill a Princess' is a fantasy steampunk short film with a very dark and very British feel.
