Sisi the Empress gets an irreverent make-over in Austrian director Marie Kreutzer’s exhilarating period drama.


In a perceptive, mesmerizing performance, Vicky Krieps (also in More Than Ever, SWIFF’23), quietly dominates the screen as Empress Elizabeth of Austria, who begins to see her life of royal privilege as a prison as she reaches her 40th birthday. Suffocating in the stuffy Hapsburg court, she finds herself incapable of continuing to conform to the decorative role that is expected of her, instead carrying out desperate acts of rebellion.

Reminiscent of The Favourite and Marie Antoinette, Corsage is a remarkable vision of a strong-willed political figure whose emergence from a veiled, corseted existence stands for a Europe on the cusp of major, irrevocable transformation.

In German, French, Hungarian & Italian with English subtitles
