CORSAGE

SYNOPSIS

It’s Christmas 1877. The Austrian Empress Elisabeth is celebrating her 40th birthday. She is always in her role of a royal – she is the wife of the Emperor Franz Joseph, respected for her beauty and style. She must never state her opinion and show how smart she is – she has to stay the young and beautiful Empress forever. To meet these expectations, she follows a strict diet, exercises, gets her hair done and measures her waistline daily. However, Elizabeth’s thirst for knowledge and her desire to live are increasingly rebelling against the wrong image of her that prevails, and she no longer wants to live the life constrained by the corsage of the court.
