Born with a star-shaped birthmark on her palm, Mitsuko's destiny to achieve greatness seemed predetermined. However, being a middle-class Japanese girl during the late 1800s, the most she could aspire to was a respectable marriage. That was until she met Heinrich, a charming and handsome Austrian diplomat. Despite societal rules and expectations, Mitsuko's feelings for him may push her to break convention.
Lady Mitsuko is a timeless story, based on the life of Mitsuko Aoyama, who went on to become the mother of influential Richard Nikolaus Graf Coudenhove-Kalergi. It's a poignant tale of clashing cultures and a love that defies all odds.
