Tess (1979) unfolds in the picturesque countryside of 19th-century England, where a humble clergyman reveals to Durbeyfield, a modest farmer, that he is a descendant of the once-renowned d'Urberville family. Intrigued by this revelation, Durbeyfield dispatches his daughter Tess to visit a family of the same name residing in a nearby manor. Upon meeting Alec d'Urberville, Tess's cousin, Alec is captivated by her beauty and takes advantage of her innocence. Tess's journey takes a tumultuous turn as she navigates the complexities of love, deception, and the harsh realities of societal expectations.
