Howards End

The socio-economic strictures of life in early-twentieth-century England are explored through the lives of three inter-connected families: the wealthy Wilcoxes, the middle class intellectual Schlegels, and the working class Basts.

Having made the acquaintance of the Wilcoxes while on holiday, the Schlegel sisters are attracted by the worldly, cultured life that the Wilcoxes lead. But when Ruth Wilcox, the family matriarch, passes away, the Schlegel sisters find themselves divided as to the future direction of their relationship with the remaining Wilcoxes.
