Louis XIV is twenty-eight years old. In order to rule over the nobility
and to permanently impose his absolute power, he launches the
construction of Versailles, like one sets a trap. Louis XIV is a young
king haunted by childhood trauma, the Fronde, a rebellion of the
nobility against his father Louis XIII… Outstanding political
strategist, manipulator, Machiavellian, he will “invent” Versailles in
order to keep the Nobles away from Paris and under control; he is
progressively transforming Versailles into a golden prison. He is also
inclined to Romanesque passions, but how to live them out when one is
the greatest king of the world? The first season follows the
King as he turns into the Sun King: the King of the Kings. The
historical and fictional characters, ranging from the most known
courtier to the most humble villager, guide us through a world of
betrayal and intimate secrets, of political maneuvers and war
declarations, revealing Versailles in all its glory and brutality.
