At the old manor of Rosmersholm, the widowed former clergyman Johannes Rosmer has lost his faith and wants to join the cause of liberal reform. Rebecca West, the clever woman who came to the house as his wife’s companion, encourages him, while his conservative brother-in-law Kroll and the radical editor Mortensgaard pull at him, and the memory of Beata’s death in the millrace will not rest.
