Historia
In an unspecified time and place, an Emperor must take a new wife if his Empress does not bear him an heir within seven years of marriage. On their sixth anniversary celebration ball, the Emperor (Max Beesley) and his loyal Chamberlain (Jonathan Rhys-Meyers) initiate a secret operation to find a suitable virgin candidate for the new Empress. A young woman named Sabah (Leticia Dolera) is secretly brought into an isolated wing in the Imperial Palace where she's tutored by Masters and constantly surveilled by the Emperor and Chamberlain. Meanwhile, the current Empress faces pressure to conceive or risk everyone involved in this secret endeavor being executed.
