Frequently Asked Questions

What is Madame Bovary about? Toggle content

In 19th century France, young and beautiful Emma Bovary (Mia Wasikowska) finds herself trapped in a dull and unfulfilling marriage to a country doctor (Henry Lloyd-Hughes). Longing for excitement, passion, and a higher social status, Emma engages in extra-marital affairs with a charming law clerk (Ezra Miller) and a wealthy Marquis (Logan Marshall-Green). As she becomes increasingly consumed by her desire for a more glamorous life, Emma's relationships and financial situation spiral out of control, ultimately leading to tragic consequences. This adaptation of Gustave Flaubert's classic novel explores the timeless themes of love, greed, and the suffocating nature of small-town life.
