Catherine de Medici, an orphaned teenager viewed as an outsider, enters the opulent but treacherous world of the 16th-century French court through an arranged marriage. Faced with the harsh reality of her husband’s infidelity and an unpaid dowry, she struggles with her inability to bear heirs. Yet, leveraging her sharp intellect and relentless spirit, Catherine navigates the ruthless dynamics of the monarchy. Over time, she not only sustains her tumultuous marriage but also emerges as a formidable political force, ultimately reigning over France for five decades.
