Margot is one of several in line to inherit the crown in a volatile France, where Roman Catholics and Protestants are jockeying for power. Margot's mother, Catherine de Medici, is intent on seeing her son take the throne once the reign of King Charles IX ends. After being married to a man she doesn't love and starting a tryst with one she does, Margot contends with her mother's at-all-costs plan to control the political fate of the country.
