Day of Wrath

A Drama of Fear and Superstition in the 20th Century.

Set in a Danish village in the early 1600s, the story follows Anne, a young woman whose mother was believed to be a witch. Anne feels sympathy for Marte, an old woman accused of witchcraft. Anne's older, kind husband, Pastor Absalon, once intervened to save her mother, but now, pressured by his overbearing mother, he refuses to help Marte. When Absalon's son returns home and becomes attracted to Anne, her family's destiny inevitably catches up with her.
