Hedda Gabler, aristocratic daughter of a general and newly-married to an
academic, yearns to shed the physical and psychological controls over her
life. She unflinchingly meets this challenge, entangling her husband,
former schoolmate, and her old flame, who is also her husband’s chief
rival, in twisting plots of subterfuge and intrigue. When a powerful judge
threatens to uncover her darkest secrets, Hedda boldly determines her own
fate.
