Over the five years that Trude worked with Elvis and the Colonel, she observed first hand the legendary moments’ in Elvis life.
The film includes music and images that have rarely - if ever - been
seen. It is not only the story of Elvis’ rise to fame, but of one of his most personal confidants, who escaped the ravages of WW2 to get the job a million girls dreamed of - Elvis private secretary.
