Then a former flame, the successful Eilert (Philip Bond), enters the picture, violence and blackmail aren't far behind. Diana Rigg is the manipulative Hedda, who will not or cannot conform to what society considers "normal" for a woman. The arrival of her ex-lover gives her the opportunity to determine someone else's fate.
