Synopsis

In a small town during World War II, 16-year-old high school dropout Jeannie is raped. But her overbearing father, Jim Dougall Sr., is concerned only with finding a way to save the “family honor.”

Our take

In this nearly forgotten intimate historical drama, the mores of a working class town in the Canadian prairies are surveyed in a heartbreaking story of a young woman facing adversity in all sides of her life. Dynamic turns from Carol Kane & Donald Pleasence alone make this ripe for rediscovery.
