Tess (1979)

Poster for Tess

She was born into a world where they called it seduction, not rape. What she did would shatter that world forever.

A strong-willed peasant girl is sent by her father to the estate of some local aristocrats to capitalize on a rumor that their families are from the same line, but is left traumatised from her experiences.
