A period romantic drama centered on a woman's painful choice between romantic love and financial security, exploring the constraints of female autonomy in 19th-century society.

In 1870s New York, spinster heiress Catherine Sloper is courted by the much younger, penniless Morris Townsend, much to the chagrin of her overprotective father. Catherine must decide whether to spend the rest of her life alone, or marry a man interested in her solely for her inheritence.
