Orla Brady stars as literature's most controversial heroine, the spirited, but tragic Cathy. Robert Cavanah plays Heathcliff, the dark stranger whose love for Cathy leads him to take terrible revenge on anyone who comes between them.
Nothing is known of Heathcliff's mysterious past when kindly Mr. Earnshaw adopts him into his family, but his daughter Cathy sees in him a soul very much like her own. They are divided by birth, class, and Cathy's jealous brother, but nothing can break the bond between them- not even when Cathy marries the wealthy gentleman Edgar Linton. Yet there are forces in nature that seem to be even more powerful than their love.
