New York 1871. Lepší společnost té doby vytvořila „svět s takovou rovnováhou, že jeho harmonii mohlo zničit pouhé zašeptání“. Společenská smetánka se řídila pevnými (byť nepsanými a nikdy nevyslovenými) pravidly a rituály, které přísněji než zákon určovaly, co je „vhodné“ a co ne. V tomto prostředí se pohybuje mladý právník Newland Archer a jeho snoubenka May Wellandová, mladinké nevinné stvoření, které je dokonalým produktem své třídy. Newland i May ctí konvence a tradice, jejich manželství je vhodné a žádoucí, jejich budoucnost daná.
