Synopsis
"This adaptation of Jane Austen's novel about misguided matchmaking takes a comic look at the romantic meddling of Emma Woodhouse. Emma spends her time arranging friends' romances, never noticing that her own true love is right beneath her nose." [Netflix]
About 100 years before British women were allowed to vote, Jane Austen was aware of the equality of men and women as portrayed in Emma, a young naïve woman whose independence of mind was not be dominated by any man.
