Falling Into his Trap

In 1944, Manon is born in Montreal to parents rooted in rural northern Quebec. Her father decides to leave the family a few months after she is born. As he would never return home, her mother raises her in poor conditions. Manon grows up to be a shy, innocent, and lonely girl. At age 22, during the turbulent years of the so-called Quiet Revolution in Quebec, Manon becomes pregnant out of wedlock. When she decides to keep her pregnancy, she faces the judgement and condescending attitudes and remarks from her overly religious and rather hostile neighbors. She finds the support of her mother absolutely necessary, and she learns about the tremendous strength that she has within as she faces the social stigma successfully.
