Susannah

About the show

In New Hope Valley, Tennessee, eighteen-year-old Susannah Polk is shunned by her church community after elders discover her bathing in a creek and accuse her of immorality. Reverend Blitch later seduces her and returns seeking forgiveness, but Susannah refuses. Her brother Sam shoots Blitch, and the townspeople head to Susannah’s cabin to drive her out. She confronts them with a shotgun; they retreat, leaving Susannah isolated from the community.
