Therese Raquin

1860's Paris. In a small dusty haberdashery shop near the Seine in the dank, narrow Passage du Pont Neuf, the young and beautiful Thérèse Raquin is trapped in a loveless marriage to her sickly cousin, Camille.

While her husband is out all day working, Thérèse spends her days confined behind the counter of a small shop and every Thursday evening watching her domineering aunt, Madame Raquin, play dominoes with an eclectic group of neer do wells.

Until the Thursday evening that her husband Camille brings an old friend to the party the alluring Laurent and she embarks on an illicit affair that leads Thérèse to abandon all her inhibitions and loyalties as their brutal and overwhelming passion overturns both their lives and has results that nobody could have foreseen.
