Following their father’s death, the Dashwood sisters—sensible Elinor and passionate Marianne—find their family’s financial security greatly diminished. Forced to move to a modest cottage, they navigate love and heartbreak in a society obsessed with wealth and status. Elinor finds herself drawn to the reserved Edward Ferrars, while Marianne falls for the dashing Willoughby, only to discover his true nature. Through trials and tribulations, both sisters learn valuable lessons about love, loss, and the importance of balancing reason with emotion.
