Description:

Guilty of loving life. A dramatization of an actual court case in turn-of-the-century Quebec. A lively, outgoing woman is accused of murdering her husband in collaboration with the hired hand. The townspeople do not appreciate her robust personality and the proceedings in court degenerate to a judgement of her character. Filled with stunning visual imagery, this feature film captures the spirit of the time and place. Particularly useful for those interested in history, law, or women's issues. <115mn 35s>
