(based on the Amish book by Beverly Lewis.)Running Time - 88 minutes
Price - $16.99
This Christian based movie was produced and directed by Michael Landon, Jr. It is a beautifullly done production. The secenery, the actors, the settings are all lovely. The story line was well acted. I love the elderly woman in the story, who appeared briefly. Her wisdom was inspiring.
The story centers around an Amish young lady about to be married to the Bishop, who is a widow with sons. Just before this happens, she finds out that she was adopted as a baby and her real mother was one of the "English." It is heartbreaking to see her struggle with this news. The procedure of Amish "shunning" is vividly and devastatingly portrayed. The ending was encouraging and I sincerely hope there is a part two!
