A sixteen-year old girl raised in a convent, Héloïse has an intellectual curiosity and rebels against the status of women in 12th century Europe. When others begin to suspect their relationship, Heloise’s uncle Fulbert and the bishop of Paris work together to put a stop to it.

This is by far the most romantic story I have ever seen.
This movie is a must see for romance fans. It has glorious love scenes, fantastic plot, and characters that are very well developed.
A Romance in which philosophies clash.
An historically-based film focusing on the romance between Abelard and Heloise which highlights two philosophical outlooks on life.Abelard, though a first-class thinker, accepted the premise of the Church–that one’s life belongs to God, that sex is evil, that happiness on earth isn’t possible. But yet he acted against that premise–he fell in love with a woman of reason: Heloise. Abelard’s implicit premise, the one he subconsciously held, was in fact pro-life and pro-earth. He loved Heloise because she reflected the things he valued most deeply: Intelligence, beauty, and happiness. But since those things are not valued but are in fact derided by the Church, Abelard believed that his feelings for Heloise were wrong, were worthy of guilt.
Heloise, on the other hand, never accepted the anti-life, anti-pleasure, anti-earth philosophy of the Church. She scoffed at religion, challenged its teachers, and refused to accept things on faith. She held reason, beauty and happiness in high esteem. She saw in Abelard a reflection of her highest values, and, consequently, she acted to gain those values. She never felt guilty about her love for Abelard. She never apologized. She never wavered.
The movie is wonderful because it demonstrates two contrasting philosophical views on life. But since the predominant view in Abelard’s and Heloise’s time was based on faith, mysticism and obedience to authority, unfortunately life, happiness and love were casualties. Watch this film with your lover and say a word of thanks to REASON, FREEDOM, and SCIENCE that you two don’t live in the atmosphere that those two did.
