The story unfolds at Rosmersholm, an old manor house in a small coastal town among the Norwegian fjords, home to Rosmer, a former pastor who has renounced the Church, and Rebecca, a woman who inspires him to live freely. In this isolated setting, the old clashes with the new and freedom with guilt, giving rise to an unfulfilled love and a death that remains unresolved.
