Synopsis

Based on the best-selling novel by Margaret Laurence, THE STONE ANGEL is the story of feisty firecracker Hagar Shipley. Her passionate heart has always ruled her head and her choices have put her at odds with family and friends. With her life nearly behind her, she sets out in search of a way to reconcile herself to her turbulent past. Through her reflections we come to know a passionate and rebellious young bride, her love for her two sons, the freedoms she claimed, and the joys she denied herself.

Starring Ellen Burstyn as Hagar and Christine Horne as the young Hagar, THE STONE ANGEL is the emotional story of one woman's search to resolve the problems of her past as she nears the end of her life and co-stars Cole Hauser, Ellen Page, Dylan Baker and Kevin Zegers.
