Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka
The setting is the beginning of the 20th century in Denmark, underscored by the use of sepia-tinted scenes, and the bride of a villainous mill owner suffers her own existence stoically, until a handsome railroad laborer catches her eye and hope begins to dawn for a relationship based on love rather than endurance. The stilted movements, dialogue, and sepia-soaked scenes were probably meant to create the "look and feel" of an earlier time, though viewers themselves will have to decide on whether or not the technique is successful.
