Honestly, I had no idea what's being displayed in the first half of your logline after my first read-through due to the terminology you use. Try changing 'Debutante', 'genteel refinement', and 'Ottoman harem' to words more commonly understood. The second half of your logline: 'where life lessons far exceed anything she would have learned in school' is great and piques my interest.
