Versailles zu Zeiten Ludwig XIV. Am Hof des Sonnenkönigs herrschen Pomp und Verschwendungssucht. Wer einen Blick hinter die Kulissen wagt, findet Intrigen, Missgunst, Klatsch und Tratsch. Das wissen vor allem die Frauen, die sich regelmäßig in Marie d'Aulnoys Kaminzimmer in Paris treffen und dort zusammen flirten, lachen, Champagner trinken und sich Märchen erzählen.
