When orphaned Pip encounters a mysterious convict on the marshes, an eccentric recluse in her crumbling mansion, and the coldly beautiful Estella, his life is forever altered. Years later, an anonymous benefactor offers him the chance to become a gentleman in London, and Pip seizes his "great expectations"-only to discover that wealth and status bring as much disillusionment as they do promise.
