Diane de Poitiers, la plus que reine S01E02 - La plus que reine

France in the 16th century. Diane de Poitiers, widowed and without fortune, uses her beauty to reach the summit of power. Mistress and favorite of the dauphin of France Henri, she knows that her position at court remains fragile in the face of the powerful Anne de Pisseleu, the favorite of King François I, who has a fierce hatred for her. Henry's marriage to Catherine de Medici, then his accession to the throne after the death of the king, did not, however, prevent Diane from gaining influence, wealth and power. Josée Dayan has brought together an exceptional cast in the service of a fascinating story.
