朱莉（萨弗蓉·布罗斯 Saffron Burrows 饰）是衔着金汤匙出生的千金大小姐，自幼过着衣来伸手饭来张口的日子，性格自然暴戾而又乖僻，对所有的人都是不可一世的态度。这样的个性令朱莉的未婚夫无法忍受，最终，他选择了离开朱莉。 失落的朱莉游荡在庭院之中，邂逅了家中地位低下的男仆让（彼得·穆兰 Peter Mullan 饰），在朱莉的命令之下，让和朱莉共跳了一支舞。实际上，让疯狂的爱慕着朱莉，只是碍于两人的身份相去甚远，才将这份爱慕埋藏在心底。朱莉被让的甜言蜜语所打动，于是决定和他私奔。可是，就在私奔的那一晚，朱莉的父亲回来了。Midsummer night, 1894, in northern Sweden. The complex strictures of class bind a man and a woman. Miss Julie, the inexperienced but imperious daughter of the manor, deigns to dance at the servant's party. She's also drawn to Jean, a footman who has traveled, speaks well, and doesn't kowtow. He is engaged to Christine, a servant, and while she sleeps, Jean and Miss Julie talk through the night in the kitchen. For part of the night it's a power struggle, for part it's the bearing of souls, and by dawn, they want to break the chains of class and leave Sweden together. When Christine wakes and goes off to church, Jean and Miss Julie have their own decisions to make.
