Director's notes:

In this 1880 text everything revolves around the truths hidden by the protagonists: Julie, Jean and the servant Krisitne. It begins with an alleged affair between the servant and the cook in a Scandinavian estate at the end of the 19th century, where the beautiful young landlady makes a ghostly appearance. Charismatic, sensitive to the point of torment, Julie is a young woman, enclosed within the golden walls of her palace, like a sad princess unaware of the true shape of life. Here she will encounter the beginnings of love and with it all the pain of that feeling, but also the knowledge of man and the human working condition in all its crude class difference. A cruel initiation into life and its infinite masks.
