SISI
described in three words - desire, power, vulnerability - takes a look at the life of a young woman who made history as an empress and became a legend as a movie character! It's the love story of two young people, between personal desire and political constraints, between power and vulnerability! Elisabeth of Austria Hungary (played by newcomer Dominique Devenport), named Sisi, who was known as ′′ the most beautiful woman in Europe ′′ and defied the rigid courteous practices and unscrupulous monarch
Franz Joseph I. (embodied in the series by Jannik Schümann), who had to bear the burden of the crown and found an unusual ally in Sisi! There are, by
the way, at least three new projects on Sisi currently in production, beside this one, including a movie version Sisi and I with Susanne Wolff.

August, 1896. Victorian London is rocked to its foundations by a supernatural event which gives certain people - mostly women - abnormal abilities, from the wondrous to the disturbing. But no matter their particular “turns,” all who belong to this new underclass are in grave danger. It falls to mysterious, quick fisted widow Amalia True (Laura
Donnelly) and brilliant young inventor Penance Adair (Ann Skelly) to protect and shelter these gifted “orphans.” To do so, they will have to face the
brutal forces determined to annihilate their kind. Olivia Williams, James Norton, Tom Riley, Eleanor Tomlinson, Nick Frost and Ben Chaplin lead the cast. Check out the trailer below:
