The White Rose

Joseph, a wealthy young Southern aristocrat fresh from seminary, yearns to experience the world before settling into his assigned parish. His quest leads him to the vibrant, chaotic streets of New Orleans. There, he encounters Bessie, a poor and unsophisticated orphan girl. A powerful, class-defying attraction ignites between them, leading to a passionate affair. This entanglement soon yields a profound consequence—Bessie finds herself carrying Joseph's child—a reality that threatens to unravel Joseph's carefully planned future and challenge his deepest convictions.
