The story of Scarlett O'Hara starts in 1861, when the 16 year old girl's life - which, except for a few stormy love affairs, was totally cloudless before - changes forever, as the American Civil War breaks out between the North and South. The O'Hara family soon sinks into poverty and Scarlet has to fight day after day to keep their plantation, Tara, and to ensure her family's survival. Her life is paved with destruction, birth, and death. Scarlet's ill-fated marriages, born out of defiance, all break off eventually, but in the end, through the endless hardships, she finds a last chance to start again.
