On a misty evening in 1898, the young painter Samuel Godwin is immediately captivated when crossing the gates of the Fourwinds property. Hired to teach art to Mr. Farrow's two daughters, he does not yet know that this luxurious residence will be the setting for his most beautiful paintings. Intrigued by the shady personality of the owner of the place, seduced by the young women, Marianne and Juliana, disconcerted by Charlotte Agnew, their governess and lady of company, Samuel soon understands that the refinement of the set and beings hides very dark mysteries and that the wind blows to better sweep away the ashes of a scandalous past.
