DESCRIPTION

Empress Sisi is one of Vienna’s biggest tourist attractions, her face can be seen on countless souvenirs and the classic film trilogy with Romy Schneider is shown on Austrian TV every Christmas. However, her image stands still in time, director Marie Kreutzer reaches for another moment in the life of the famous character – she shows Elizabeth when she turns 40 and begins to be noticed by her age, not by her achievements or aspirations. Sisi does not want to be squeezed into a rigid corset of expectations and at the same time wants to protect her legacy.
