Emily

This biography depicts the short, turbulent life of English writer Emily Brontë. Born in 1818 in the small town of Thornton, she is the middle of three Brontë sisters. Their older two sisters died at an early age in 1825. As children, the sisters move with their brother Branwell and their parents to Haworth, where their father Patrick holds a position as minister. But Emily does not fit into the straitjacket imposed on her by her family and the Yorkshire bourgeoisie. She is a rebel and a misfit, a young woman trying to be herself. When she unexpectedly discovers love, it intensifies not only her passion but also her desire for freedom. Encouraged by her brother Branwell, Emily chooses her own path and finds the inspiration for a timeless masterpiece: Wuthering Heights.
