The year is 1853, and the Habsburgs are Europes most powerful ruling family. With his empire stretching from Austria to Russia, from Germany to Italy, Emperor Franz Joseph is young, rich, and ready to marry. Fifteen-year-old Elisabeth, "Sisi," Duchess of Bavaria, travels to the Habsburg Court with her older sister, who is betrothed to the young emperor.

Franz Joseph reneges on his earlier proposal and declares his intention to marry Sisi instead.
