The Lady from the Sea is Henrik Ibsen’s most radically modern portrayal of a woman’s fight for autonomy in her relationship.
Fearful she may have settled too easily for a comfortable life married to a well-off doctor, Ellida searches for a way to break the predictable routine her existence has become.
When a lover from her past appears at their remote country house, she has to choose between the life she has now built and the one she left behind long ago.
