What is Kata Kabanova

Trapped in a loveless marriage and suffocated by her controlling mother-in-law, young Kát’a finds herself swept into a passionate affair. But as forbidden love awakens new hope, guilt and longing threaten to overwhelm her in this moving tale of desire, repression and despair.
