| The
year is 1663 and young Rebekah Hall has just arrived from England to join
her father in Massachusetts Bay Colony. The Halls have come to America
to practice their religion freely. The Puritans also take it upon themselves
to convert the natives to Christianity. Rebekah begins to question this
practice and comes to respect the Native American beliefs. She meets Mishannock,
a young holy man from the Pawtauket tribe. These two fall in love but neither
the Puritans nor the Pawtaukets approve. Will they find a way to be together
or will Rebekah be sent back to England? |
