Synopsis:
THE GIRL KING is the story of one of the most iconic queens in
history. Queen Kristina of Sweden, raised as a prince at her father’s request,
is thrust into a world of conflict. Faced with the austere, fiercely
conservative Lutheran values of the times, she begins her reign in
confrontation – opting for education for all her subjects and an end to the
Thirty Years War. Pulled between the Lutheran and Catholic forces, conspiring
for her allegiance, she also faces an internal struggle. Falling deeply in love
with her lady in waiting, the stunning EbbaSparre, she is left confused and
wanting. As the forces converge, Kristina is pushed towards making one of the
greatest and most scandalous decisions in history. This is the story of the
young Kristina, preceding this momentous and influential decision.
