The film"s page
La jeune princesse prussienne Sophia-Frederica d'Anhalt-Zerbst a été choisie par l’impératrice Elisabeth pour épouser son neveu, héritier du trône de Russie. En 1774, elle part pour Saint-Pétersbourg rejoindre son futur époux. Persuadée d’être attendue par un homme brillant et raffiné, elle ne prête pas attention aux avances du comte Alexei, dont elle est la cible durant son long voyage. A son arrivée, elle découvre que l’héritier est un simple d’esprit…
Note : inspiré de la vie de Catherine II de Russie, ce film est une réponse de la Paramount à La Reine Christine avec Greta Garbo, grande rivale de Marlene Dietrich.
