Wedding in White is a Canadian drama set in a rural community during the First World War, focusing on a young woman whose life is shattered by sexual violence and social hypocrisy. The film examines patriarchal control, moral double standards, and communal shame rather than justice or revenge. Told with restraint and emotional intensity, it is a stark social drama about silence, complicity, and repression.
