In the present, siblings Michael and Carolyn arrive at the Iowa farmhouse of Francesca Johnson, their recently deceased mother, to see about the settlement of their mother's estate. As they go through the contents of her safe deposit box and the will, they are baffled to discover that their mother left very specific instructions that her body be cremated and her ashes thrown off the nearby Roseman Covered Bridge, which is not in accordance with the burial arrangements they had known from their parents. Michael initially refuses to comply, while Carolyn discovers a set of photos of her mother and a letter. She manages to convince Michael to set aside his initial reaction so they can read the documents she has discovered. Once alone, they go through a series of letters from a man named Robert Kincaid to their mother. The siblings find their way to a chest where their mother left a letter, a series of diaries, and other mementos.
They discovered in 1965, their mother, an Italian war bride, had a four-day affair with Robert Kincaid, a photographer who had come to Madison County, Iowa, to shoot a photographic essay for ''National Geographic'' on the covered bridges in the area.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=The Bridges of Madison County )〕 The affair took place while her husband and children were away at the Illinois State Fair.

The story also has deep consequences on the lives of Michael and Carolyn, both of whom are facing marital issues - their mother’s story helps them to find a sense of direction in their lives. At the end, the Johnson siblings comply with their mother’s request.
