Henry James's masterpiece about desire and freedom.

We meet Isabel four years on and she is totally transformed by her marriage to Osmond.

What had seemed to be a path to freedom is now a narrowing tunnel closing in around her and it is clear to those who love her that Isabel is in trouble.

Isabel must find a way out if she is to save herself.

Starring John Lynch and Joanna Vanderham.

Dramatised by Linda Marshall Griffiths.
