Con la llegada del rico y apuesto Mr. Darcy a su región, las vidas de los Bennet y sus cinco hijas se vuelven del revés. El orgullo y la distancia social, la astucia y la hipocresía, los malentendidos y los juicios apresurados abocan a sus personajes al escándalo y al dolor, pero también a la comprensión, el conocimiento y el amor verdadero.
