A writer, Kamouraska is based on a real nineteenth-century love-triangle in rural Québec. It paints a poetic and terrifying tableau of the life of Elisabeth d'Aulnières: her marriage to Antoine Tassy, squire of Kamouraska; his violent murder; and her passion for George Nelson, an American doctor. Passionate and evocative, Kamouraska is the timeless story of one woman's destructive commitment to an ideal love.

Bernadette tiene un yen para tirarlo todo y volver a la naturaleza en esta película canadiense en francés. Eso es justo lo que hace después de dejar cuidadosamente su anillo de bodas donde su rico esposo, un abogado, puede verlo.

Pronto, debido a los maravillosos efectos que tienen su simpatía y la perspectiva de su forastero, sus vecinos perciben grandes mejoras en sus vidas. Atribuyen estos cambios a algo milagroso (tal vez siguiendo el ejemplo de su nombre), y hordas de personas necesitadas descienden a su granja.
