Ethan Frome is a farmer. He works long hours, but makes little money. His wife, Zeena, is always complaining, and only interested in her own ill health. Mattie Silver, a young cousin, comes to live with them to help Zeena and do housework. Her bright smile and laughing voice bring light and hope into the Fromes' house - and into Ethan's life.
