Djevojka koja je postala Marija Antoaneta

Juliet Grey

The year is 1766. Maria Antonija is a carefree girl who grows up in Schönbrunn Palace, playing with her brothers and sisters, but also under the supervision of her strict mother, Empress Maria Theresa.

Antonija is aware that her idyllic childhood will one day be sacrificed for political goals. But what she didn't know was that that day was so close. In order to strengthen the alliance with France, Maria Theresa arranged a marriage between Antonia and Louis Augustus. Preparations begin, in which the spoiled Tončica must acquire knowledge worthy of the future queen of France. But the real problems arise only after her arrival in Versailles, where intrigue reigns. In addition, it seems to Antonia that her husband is impossible to approach. Luj constantly postpones his marital duties...
