Determined to improve her lot in life, Sarah (Saskia Reeves) is a proud servant girl who rebels against her strict upbringing by having love affairs with two brothers at the same time. When she becomes pregnant, Sarah will not (and some believe cannot) name the father of her child. She also refuses to marry either brother, choosing to live with both of them in defiance of her mother and their shocked rural community. As religious and social pressures mount and villagers react violently, Sarah and the brothers risk happiness, reputation and safety for their daring love. (official distributor synopsis)
