Plot Summary:Prejudice, perfidy, love, and bravery in Qubec. In 1779, a priest on his deathbed receives a young woman. Flash back 20 years Marie-Loup, an herb-dispensing peasant, falls for Franois, a man of property. The priests perfidy and the treachery of a soldier separate the lovers and set in motion a chain of events leading to a death, a trial, and an execution. The action unfolds against a backdrop of Englands take-over of French-Canada, the Churchs manipulations to maintain spiritual hegemony, and the limited rights of woman and indigenous peoples. Watching it all is Marie-Loups daughter, named France, who, when grown, is the dying priests visitor in prelude and coda
