The Spanish Woman is based on a true 17th century story of a young Spanish noblewoman, Luisa de Coyes Francheros, who was captured by Turkish pirates. She is ruined, and if she returned home would be forced to live in a convent for the rest of her life. In Turkey she befriends the Sultan's mother, and is plunged into an alien world of Court intrigues set against an extraordinary love story.
