Elinor e Marianne sono due sorelle appartenenti al ramo povero della famiglia Dashwood. La prima, orgogliosa e riservata, cerca di mandare avanti la famiglia mentre deve reprimere l'amore per Edward, un parente ricco. La seconda, più romantica e istintiva, si abbandona alla passione senza remore. Il senso del dovere impedisce a Elinor di realizzarsi sentimentalmente, mentre la passionalità di Marianne la espone a inganni.
