Story: A surgeon is assigned the case of a young woman whose aunt wants her lobotomized to cover up a family secret.

Wealthy harridan Violet Venable (Katharine Hepburn) attempts to bribe Dr. John Cukrowicz (Montgomery Clift), a young psycho-surgeon from a New Orleans, Louisiana mental hospital that is desperately in need of funds, into lobotomizing her niece, Catherine Holly (Dame Elizabeth Taylor), to prevent the girl from defiling the memory of her cousin, Violets poet son Sebastian (Julián Ugarte). Catherine has been babbling obscenely about Sebastians mysterious death that she witnessed while they were vacationing together in Spain the previous summer.

In 1937 New Orleans, Louisiana, Dr. John Cukrowicz (Montgomery Clift), working at the state-run Lions View Mental Institution, is experimenting with a radical new treatment for hopeless cases of lunacy: lobotomy. Lions View is woefully underfunded, but a supposed savior comes forth in the form of wealthy, aging widowed Mrs. Violet Venable (Katharine Hepburn)--the Venable name an institution itself in New Orleans, Louisiana. Mrs. Venable had an extremely close bond with her poet son Sebastian (Julián Ugarte), with whom she vacationed every year, but who died the previous summer while on a European vacation with Mrs. Venables pretty niece by marriage, Catherine Holly (Dame Elizabeth Taylor). Mrs. Venables $1-million donation to Lions View is seemingly predicated on Dr. Cukrowicz institutionalizing and lobotomizing Catherine, whom Mrs. Venable states is mentally deranged. In meeting with Dr. Cukrowicz, Catherine states that she is not deranged, only disturbed by something from last summers vacation with Sebastian--an incident she cannot remember. With pressure from Mrs. Venable (which is equally directed at Catherines mother in the form of $100,000 to sign Catherines commitment papers), Dr. Cukrowicz must decide to go forward with the operation against the vehement denials of lunacy by Catherine, or wait to try to find out exactly what happened last summer between Catherine and Sebastian.
