- A country girl Emma Rouault marries a recently bereaved doctor, Charles Bovary, but her love for him does not endure. Whilst Bovary is happy to remain an ordinary provincial doctor, Emma yearns for better things. After her husband botches up a foot operation she loses all respect for him and starts having an affair with a wealthy philanderer, Rodolphe. She plans to elope with her new lover, but he abandons her. Worse, she has unwittingly allowed her unscrupulous dressmaker to run up an account that she can never pay off...
