Finally got to watch 1864 because they aired it on German-French tv again. It's about the second Schleswig war between Denmark and Prussia (with the help of K.u.K Austria-Hungary). Too bad they dubbed the Danish speaking parts instead of using subtitles. Monrad, the fanatic council president of Denmark is played fantastically. The series is full of feminist subplots and PTSD, like the current year part, where a help helper girl visits the descendant of the woman who brought shame to her family during the war years because she would get pregnant by a serf. The essential stuff is in the original with subtitles on youtube, so you don't have to watch the subplots.
