Synopsis
Late in the 19th century, Empress Elisabeth of Austria-Hungary, known as Sisi (Susanne Wolff), was living in an aristocratic women-only commune in Greece. Countess Irma is sent there to be Sisi’s companion, and she is captivated by the eccentric and extravagant recluse. But the outside world is reaching out to break Sisi. And no matter how much Irma and Sisi resist, in the end they are left with only one fatal path that will bind the two women together forever.
