The film portrays the Amish lifestyle and belief system reverently and with respect. When she finds out that she was adopted as a baby, she rebels against her upbringing and the town’s elders decide that the proper thing to do is to “shun” her until she comes back to the ways she was taught. Adding to her internal conflict is her love of “English” music which is banned in her community. Although she should be pleased to be marrying a kind and gentle man of his stature, she continues to remember her first love, a boy who died 3 years earlier. “The Shunning” is a moving film that centers around a common question who are we really? In this dramatic portrayal, Danielle Panabaker plays an Amish girl named Katie Lapp who is betrothed to the town’s Bishop.
