Between riots in Paris and image-wrecking social media firestorms, Marie can’t afford to lose her head. When Marie and Louis become king and queen long before they’re ready to rule, any efforts to aid their suffering subjects are stamped out by the mega-corporations of the First Estate. Under the surface, it’s a creepy den of secrets: surveillance in Marie’s bedroom, censored news feeds, disappearing courtiers. Versailles seems like a dream full of neon-lit statues, handsome android soldiers, and parties till dawn. Her shy husband Louis is more interested in horses and computer-hacking than producing heirs. Her life is a maze of pointless rules, and the court watches her every move for mistakes. Versailles is not the perfect palace Marie’s seen on The Apps. She’s Marie Antoinette, the year is 3070, and she’s arrived in the Franc Kingdom to marry the prince, secure an alliance, and rake in likes from her fans. She uses her fashion-forward eye to pick the perfect angle and filter on every photo. She has a million followers on social media.
