King's Daughters ()
Overview
June 1663: King Louis XIV orders the shipment of orphan virgins to be married off in his faltering colony across the Atlantic. The group of girls – including the youngest, Catherine Moitié, 13 years old – undergo a cursed crossing of 111 days, plagued by promiscuity, disease, superstitious crew, famine, vermin, apathy, and death.
