What happens

La Grande Marnière est un film français réalisé par Jean de Marguenat, sorti en 1943. Un riche paysan, Carvajan, cherche à se venger du châtelain, Clairefont, avec lequel il a eu un grave conflit. Leurs enfants respectifs, Antoinette et Pascal, se rencontrent et tombent amoureux l'un de l'autre. Robert de Clairefont, le frère d'Antoinette, injustement accusé d'un meurtre est défendu et sauvé par Pascal. Enfin, l'amour, en unissant le fils de l'un à la fille de l'autre, apaisera les âmes et réconciliera les familles. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
