Having just returned from a long honeymoon, Jörgen Tesman and Hedda, née Gabler, move into their new house. It is Hedda's dream house, for which Tesman has gone into debt, believing that he will soon become a professor. Everything could actually be so wonderful. But neither of them is made for this marriage. Hedda longs for more influence and adventure, while Tesman's greatest passion is his work and he wants to meet all of society's demands. Then Hedda's former lover Lövborg turns up. He has used her absence to write a groundbreaking work with the help of another woman. Now he is also being considered as a possible candidate for the professorship. Hedda's life plan is slipping through her fingers. Within 24 hours she succeeds in bringing the bourgeois world around her to collapse.
