To increase his familys prestige, her father, the Marquis de Mézières forces Marie to marry the Prince de Montpensier (GREGOIRE LEPRINCE-RINGUET: Love Songs), whom she has never met. The Prince is summoned by Charles IX to join the war against the Protestants. With the whole country turned into a bloody battlefield, he sends his young wife to Champigny, one of his most secluded castles, in the company of the Comte de Chabannes (LAMBERT WILSON: Of Gods and Men), his friend and former tutor.
