The Empress

Maria Theresa has hopes for ending the war with Prussia, but her position as a powerful woman still draws the ire of many, even her mother-in-law, who sends her other son to spy on the Hapsburg military strategies. No wonder Maria feels like she is fighting a lone fight. From Walter Presents, in German with English subtitles.
