She agrees to write a play with hopes that it will keep her mind off of her son who is in the War overseas. But a long-hidden secret in the form of a letter from her errant father provides a distraction of its own. As Anne struggles to complete the play, she delves into long-buried memories, reliving the troubled years before she arrived as an orphan at Green Gables. As a child, Young Anne (newcomer Hannah Endicott-Douglas), was taken into the care of a wealthy matriarch, Amelia Thomas (Academy-award winner Shirley MacLaine) and her daughter-in-law, Louisa (Rachel Blanchard), which changes her life forever. Anne finally reveals the astonishing truth about her father and the origins of her quest for "kindred spirits."
