What happens
The Girl of the Limberlost is a 1945 American drama film starring Ruth Nelson, Dorinda Clifton, and Loren Tindall, and directed by Mel Ferrer. The film is based on a 1909 novel by Gene Stratton-Porter. The film was also adapted in 1924 and 1934 as "A Girl of the Limberlost". The movie is set in Indiana's famous Limberlost Swamp, which was clear-cut, drained and turned into farmland in the early 20th century, despite efforts by Stratton-Porter and others to save it. A small part of the original swamp has been restored since the 1990s and is now a nature preserve. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
