L’épouse malheureuse de Louis XVI, tristement célèbre pour être passée sous la guillotine révolutionnaire, apparaît maintenant comme une personne plus complexe. On découvre qu’il y avait plus que les choses superficielles et les comportements frivoles qui ont fait sa réputation et ont contribué à sa fin tragique.
