Christmas 1877: Empress Elisabeth of Austria is celebrating her 40th birthday. In her representative role alongside her husband, Emperor Franz Josef, she isn’t allowed to express any opinions; her task is to look beautiful at all times. To meet this expectation, she adheres to a rigid regimen of starvation, exercise, and hairstyling. But Elisabeth is an inquisitive woman thirsting to experience life.
