Tess (1979)

SHE WAS BORN INTO A WORLD WHERE THEY CALLED IT SEDUCTION, NOT RAPE. WHAT SHE DID WOULD SHATTER THAT WORLD FOREVER.

A strong-willed peasant girl is sent by her father to the estate of some local aristocrats to capitalize on a rumour that their families are from the same line. This fateful visit commences an epic narrative of sex, class, betrayal, and revenge.
