Synopsis
Un village montagnard en Norvège au XVII siècle. An-Magritt est née d'un viol. Attachée au pilori, sa mère se suicide en se jetant dans la rivière. Il revient au grand-père de prendre soin de l'enfant. Conçue dans la violence, c'est grâce à la charité qu'An-Magritt doit son salut. Elle n'a pourtant d'autre alternative que de travailler durement tout en subissant le froid et la faim au risque de sa vie. Dès son adolescence, la jeune femme acquiert une personnalité bien trempée, s'acquittant de tâches ordinairement dévolues aux hommes - convoyer du minerai et du charbon entre la mine et la fonderie, labourer pour assurer sa subsistance - et apprenant à lire. Sa beauté et son farouche caractère attirent l'attention d'un ingénieur allemand dont elle finit par s'éprendre. Alors que les conditions de vie et de travail sont déjà extrêmement pénibles pour les villageois, le chambellan Jochum, prétextant de graves difficultés, annonce de terribles restrictions.Actors
