Trama
In Victorian-era Wessex County, England, Tess Durbeyfield, a shy and proud peasant girl, is sent to the estate of local aristocrats by her father after learning that their families are supposedly related. Upon arriving at the mansion, Tess discovers that the residents, including Alec d'Urberville, have merely adopted the noble surname for social gain. Despite her misgivings about Alec, she succumbs to his advances and becomes pregnant, leading to a traumatic experience for Tess. Later, Tess falls in love with Angel Clare, the son of a parson. She must decide whether to reveal her past relationship with Alec, knowing that it could jeopardize their relationship if he finds out.
