Synopsis

Sugar heiress Antoinette Cosway (Karina Lombard) is an aristocratic, convent-schooled Creole who falls hard for repressed Englishman Edward Rochester (Nathaniel Parker). Her parents, Annette Cosway (Rachel Ward) and Paul Mason (Michael York) approve of their union, and of Edward’s pure Anglo bloodline, not realizing that he is, in fact, marrying their daughter for her dowry. Once they begin their life together, Edward becomes captivated by Antoinette’s untamed sensuality, and a mutual passion overtakes them.
