15 Février 1839
In 1839, months after the British army has quelled the Patriot uprising, hundreds of rebels languish in prison. Marie-Thomas Chevalier De Lorimier and Charles Hindelang learn that they and three other comrades will be executed within 24 hours on the morning of February 14. While awaiting their appointed time of death, the condemned spend time with companions and loved ones, as well as entrusting them with their last wills. At daybreak, the five Patriots find the strength to go with dignity to the scaffold, knowing that they would die in the name of a just cause. www.tribute.ca
