Adapted from Juliette Benzoni’s historical romance novels, Marie des Intrigues and Marie des passions, Alain Tasma’s four-part series delves into the fierce bond that develops between two startlingly different, yet equally powerful, women in 17th century France. The free-spirited Marie de Rohan, Duchess of Chevreuse, is as sensual as she is daring, and fearless when it comes to using her sexuality to wield political influence. Anne of Austria, Queen of France, is a shy, extremely proud, straight-laced young woman who was married to Louis XIII at the age of 14, then quickly abandoned by the feverish, impotent monarch. Marie sets out to bring the royal couple back together, bringing a lust for life and spontaneity into the staid household… as well as more than a few scandals.
