Upper-crust England before, during, and after WWII provides the backdrop for The Heart of Me, a richly emotional drama about the seductive—and destructive—nature of passion. A classic romantic triangle, the film stars Helena Bonham Carter and Olivia Williams as sisters Dinah and Madeleine, and Paul Bettany as Rickie, Madeleine's husband. Torn between two women, Rickie risks everything by falling into a clandestine affair with Dinah. What follows is deception and betrayal as the two sisters wage a fierce battle for his heart.
