Alfred and Rita Allmers (Anthony Hopkins and Diana Rigg) have been emotionally estranged since the accident that caused the paralysis of their 9-year-old son, Eyolf (Timothy Stark). The couple's tragedy only deepens when a mysterious woman (Peggy Ashcroft) appears and entrances the boy. The tumult that follows will test their marriage in ways they never expected. Charles Dance and Emma Piper co-star in this BBC production of Henrik Ibsen's play.
