An impressive cast of British actors brings Samuel Richardson`s novel CLARISSA to life. Feeling the pressure from her upwardly mobile family, who are pushing her to marry an aristocratic gentleman she can`t abide, the lovely Clarissa Harlowe (Saskia Wickham) seeks a way to escape their clutches. Finding solace in Robert Lovelace (Sean Bean), the man who helps her escape her fate, Clarissa sees her world about to cave in once again when the nefarious Lovelace makes it clear that he has designs on her himself.
