During the Italian Risorgimento (mid-nineteenth century), in Austrian-occupied Lombardy, Franco Maironi (Massimo Serato), a young man of noble descent, decides to marry Luisa (Alida Valli), a humble clerk's daughter, against his grandmother, the Marquess Orsola Maironi's wishes. The old lady makes the life of the newly married couple miserable (she destroys the will which would grant Franco his wealth, and causes Luisa's uncle to lose his job, as he was helping them). In the meantime, Luisa gives birth to little Maria. Franco is forced to go to Turin in search of a job. During his absence, a terrible tragedy upsets Luisa's life: her daughter drowns in Lake of Lugano and the woman is driven to the brink of madness. Franco returns home for a short time but Luisa reacts coldly towards him. During the Second Italian War of Independence Franco becomes a volunteer soldier in the fight against Austrian and again meets his wife by Lake Maggiore. Despite Luisa's coldness, Franco is sure she still loves him. Aware that he might die in the war, he makes love to her one last time, leaving her pregnant.

Fin du XIX siècle. Dans un château situé au bord d'un magnifique lac alpestre, la jeune et belle marquise Marina di Malombra, devenue orpheline désargentée, est recueillie par son oncle, le comte Cesare d'Ormengo, un homme sévère. Elle découvre dans sa chambre un manuscrit ayant appartenu à la comtesse Cecilia devenue folle, et séquestrée par jalousie par son mari, le père de cet oncle. Elle se sent devenir la réincarnation de cécilia. Plus tard Corrado Silla, un jeune écrivain sans succès, ayant écrit un roman sur la réincarnation des âmes, assure des fonctions de secrétaire sur la demande du comte ayant connu sa mère. Marina qui ne peut vivre sa vie fastueuse antérieure le méprise à son arrivée comme un domestique et un fils naturel du comte. Puis Corrado, qui reconnait par une broche sa correspondante d'auteur, tombé amoureux de cette correspondante, s'enfuit précipitamment du château. La lecture du roman et la présence du manuscrit continue de hanter la marquise qui croit percevoir en son oncle la réincarnation de l'époux de Cecilia et en Corrado, celle de son amant. Le comte Cesare décède par arrêt cardiaque provoqué. Au cours de la cérémonie funèbre au palais, Marina di Malombra, en proie au délire de vengeance de cécilia tue Corrado qu'elle croit être le fils du conte. Elle s'embarque, ensuite, pour mourir dans le lac, comme l'avait fait la comtesse Cecilia des années auparavant.
