Shaun McKenna’s gripping historical drama about the young Eleanor of Aquitaine - wife and mother to Kings, crusader, prisoner and formidable political operator.

Despite her best efforts to extricate herself, Eleanor is still trapped in an unhappy marriage to King Louis of France. Her dreams of heady romance and freedom to rule her own lands are no closer to being realised. A new arrival at court at least promises a momentary diversion.
