Germany - 2021

Season 1 - 6x45' | World Premiere

In German with French & English subtitles
Ep. 1&2

Synopsis
She is an icon, Empress, legendary beauty: Sisi, Europe’s first super star. Now, she will enter into a new era. A carefree teenager, Sisi falls head over heels in love with a powerful and desirable man. But he has an unspoken dark and dangerous side: love that was not meant to be. Sisi has to choose and accepts the challenge: The tomboy becomes a self-confident, modern woman, able to make difficult decisions, to deal with loss, and ultimately to fill an independent role as Empress.

Note from the artistic direction
The princess of all princesses is coming back to the screen and will walk the pink carpet. This reinterpretation of Sisi, with breathtaking cinematography, portrays a much more modern and pop princess than in our childhood memories, and allows us to discover Dominique Devenport.
