The action takes place in Yorkshire, England. When Cathy Earnshaw and
her brother Hindley were 10 and 16 years old, their father Mr. Earnshaw
adopted a little orphaned gypsy boy called Heathcliff and took him to
live with them in his mansion "Wuthering Heights". Heathcliff was going
to change their lives forever. Mr. Earnshaw described Heathcliff as a
gift of God. He grew up with them and became their third brother.
Everything was fine until the father passed away and Hindley has thrown
Heathcliff to the stables. Growing up alone and in silence, Heathcliff
was happy when he saw or when he was near Cathy, a beautiful girl. The
two became close friends, but hid it from Hindley. Everything changed
when Cathy met the brother and sister Linton, Edgar and Isabella.
Through their elegance and attractive personality, Cathy discovered a
world of exquisite culture and education. For Lintons, the people like
Heathcliff didn't exist and were not even worth a glance. Cathy decides
to marry Edgar Linton, and to change her destiny. In the meantime,
Heathcliff, desperate, only thinks about taking a revenge on those who
destroyed his life and his dreams.
