Farewell, My Queen (2012) movie storyline

Farewell, My Queen is a French-language historical drama (subtitled in English) about the events in the days leading up to the storming of the Bastille in 1789 -- notably Marie Antoinette's personal relationships with her ladies-in-waiting and special friend. Expect to feel a bit like a voyeur allowed behind the curtains to see a queen undone by the rapid shift in politics and dwelling on the imminent loss of an illicit relationship. There's some nudity (two women are shown naked, one while sleeping), relationships between both opposite- and same-sex couples, a bit of swearing, and deep chasms between social classes. 

Versailles, July 1789. The Bastille is being stormed. With the uprisings in the background, Queen Marie Antoinette (Diane Kruger) and her court are in a state of disarray trying to figure out how the future will unfold. The film follows the experiences of Sidonie Laborde (Lea Seydoux), the queen's personal reader, whose loyalty to the queen knows no bounds, even when she's asked to make a huge sacrifice. Her Majesty, meanwhile, is under scrutiny not just because of the extravagant royal way of life, but also for her friendships -- especially with the mysterious and scandalous Gabrielle de Polignac (Virginie Ledoyen).  

1789, at the eve of the Revolution: Versailles' occupants still live happily, unconcerned by the increasing turmoil in Paris. When news about the storming of the Bastille reaches the Court, aristocrats and servants desert the Palace, leaving the Royal Family alone. But Sidonie Laborde, a young servant who reads to the Queen, refuses to flee. She feels secure as she is under protection of the Queen of France. She does not yet know these are the last three days she would spend by her side.
