Synopsis

A poignant coming-of-age story set against the backdrop of World War I. It follows Rilla Blythe, the youngest of the Anne Shirley-inspired Blythe family, as she navigates adolescence during turbulent times. Initially carefree, Rilla matures rapidly amidst wartime challenges, including her brothers’ enlistment and the strain on her tight-knit community. Through heartbreak and hope, she discovers inner strength, love, and resilience. Montgomery beautifully intertwines personal growth with the broader impact of war, creating a touching tale of courage, sacrifice, and enduring optimism.
