Studené podnebie (1975)

Synopsis

A sensitive and modest girl gets married and lives with her family in the mountains. After her husband leaves for the army, she finds herself isolated by her family and her surroundings. The father-in-law perceives the bride's sadness and tries to establish a more cordial relationship with the lonely girl. This, however, gives rise to speculation about the bride's moral failure. She cannot bear the shame of suspicion and throws herself under the wheels of the locomotive. The blame for the death of a frail, honest man lies with those who acted on unverified assumptions of passion and suspicion.
