The filmmakers of "Pride & Prejudice" reunite for a new movie, based on the award-winning best-selling 2002 novel "Atonement," which is a classic British romance that spans several decades. Fledgling writer Briony Tallis, as a 13-year-old, irrevocably changes the course of several lives when she accuses her older sister's ("Pride & Prejudice" Academy Award nominee Keira Knightley) lover (James McAvoy) of a crime he did not commit.

1. Briony's Play - 1 min 19 sec
The story opens on a hot summer day in 1935. Thirteen-year-old Briony Tallis has written a play for her brother Leon, with the characters to be played by her cousins, 15-year old Lola and 9-year old twins Jackson and Pierrot.
Briony invites Robbie to see her play The Trials of Arabella.
2. The Rehearsal - 55 sec
The Trials of Arabella is a play written with the intention to teach her brother Leon to be more serious when it came to relationships. The play inevitably never gets performed due to the lack of cooperation of Jackson and Pierrot, and the further complications that follow.
3. The Fountain - 1 min 06 sec
Briony's sister, 23-year old Cecilia Tallis, has returned home from university and is now confronted with her confused feelings towards Robbie Turner, the son of their housekeeper, who was taken under the patronage of Cecilia's father Jack, and, like Cecilia, studied literature at Cambridge University. While trying to help her water some flowers, they break a vase and pieces fall into the fountain. Cecilia strips to her underwear and jumps into the fountain to retrieve the fragments in front of a startled Robbie. Briony Tallis also witnesses this event from an upstairs bedroom, although she is confused as to its meaning.
4. The Pool - 1 min 30 sec
Their brother Leon arrives with his friend Paul Marshall, an aspiring businessman who plans to sell chocolate bars to the Army.
5. The Kiss - 42 sec
Robbie and Cecelia kiss
6. Tension at the Dinner Table - 1 min 11 sec
Their brother Leon arrives with his friend Paul Marshall, an aspiring businessman who plans to sell chocolate bars to the Army. Leon invites Robbie to dinner, much to Cecilia's annoyance, as she is still confused as to why Robbie upsets her so much. Robbie and Cecelia attempt to maintain.
7. The Letter - 1 min 31 sec
Robbie, meanwhile, returns to his bungalow to write a letter to Cecilia. In one version of the letter he includes some lewd suggestions. He then inadvertently delivers this version of the letter to Cecilia via Briony, who reads it and is convinced, in her fertile imagination, that Robbie is a "sex maniac". Upon reading the note, Cecilia realizes her love for Robbie, and they declare their love for each other in the library. Briony interrupts their lovemaking, which she interprets as an attack on her sister.
8. The Worst Word - 1 min 31 sec
Briony discusses the "sex maniac" letter with her friend
9. The Investigation - 55 sec
During dinner, the twin cousins run away, leaving a letter, and people begin searching for them in the extensive grounds of the estate. In the dark, Briony comes across Lola being raped by an unknown attacker. Briony convinces herself that the rapist is Robbie, and Lola acquiesces. The police arrive to investigate, and when Robbie arrives with the rescued twins he is arrested solely on account of Briony's testimony. Apart from Robbie's mother only Cecilia believes in his innocence.
10. Robbie's Letter Home - 52 sec
We follow Robbie Turner in France during the Dunkirk evacuation of 1940. As a result of Briony's accusation, Robbie spent three years in prison before enlisting in the army. He has been in contact with Cecilia through letters, and she has promised that she'll wait for him. They've only met once since his arrest, a fleeting half hour spent in awkwardness, but they shared a kiss before Cecilia had to leave.
11. The Story - 45 sec
A friend asks Briony about her "Two Figures at the Fountain" tell-all-story. Context: Briony is now working as a trainee nurse in London during the weeks leading up to and following the Dunkirk evacuation. She now believes it was Paul Marshall who raped Lola in 1935, and feels guilty for accusing Robbie. During the course of this section, it becomes apparent to the reader that Briony sees her work as a nurse as a sort of redemption; she effectively sent Robbie to a horrible war, and now she is nursing soldiers like him.
