Cast: Jean-Claude Dreyfus, Lucy Russell.Summary: The lady, Grace Elliot, was once the mistress of the Prince of Wales. She left him for Philippe, Duc d'Orleans, a cousin of Louis XVI. The film opens a year after the fall of the Bastille, and while their affair is over, Grace and the Duc have stayed close friends. But just because they're friends doesn't mean they can't (and don't) have powerful political arguments. Organized around five specific moments in the revolution, the drama reveals personalities as it shows how both responded to the momentous times they were living through.
