Catholic School to Harem
This is based on a true story. Aimee was from Matineque; her uncle was sending her to a catholic school in France. She is caught kissing a young soldier in the study at a ball, and is put on a boat back to Martineque. Pirates take over the ship and she is sold into slavery. Being a virgin, she was worth her weight in gold. She is bought by the Ottoman Harem. She is chosen to be the sultan's wife, but she isn't willing to sleep with an old man that she isn't in love with. She does give in and she falls in love with Abdul. Sineperver (his 1st wife) is very jealous. Aimee has a son and Sineperver has him strangled while they are sleeping. Abdul has another son (which he brings to her bedside) who's mother died at birth. Aimee was asked to be his mother, and from that moment on she was. Abdul dies and Selim takes over as sultan. The Genecaries hate him and kill him. Thus making Mustafa (Sineperver's son) the new sultan. Aimee kills Mustafa with a daggar that Sineperver had given to her years before, to kill herself with. Now her son was sultan. This true story has excitement, love, passion, and the true meaning of being a family.

Delightful, even through the script
It's a movie about love and
power
and the politics in a world different from today's. It is based on a true story of a French school girl that became a powerful woman in Turkey. She goes from unwilling slave, to lover, to mother. There is heart break, hope and death. It's a movie to watch only if you aren't a stickler for accuracy. I'll admit the acting is somewhat terrible, and the script wasn't the best, but this isn't a movie about sex and acting. This movie was made in the late 80's and people need to remember that when watching it. If you were looking for a movie with sex, this is NOT it.
