故事发生在1692年的马萨诸塞州，女人在一个地处偏远的小镇之中，女人生活着一群虔诚又愚昧的人们。女孩阿比盖尔（薇诺娜·瑞德 Winona Ryder 饰）是牧师的侄女，因此在镇上享有很高的声誉，凡是她说的话人们都信，凡是她做的事人们都赞成。凭借着自己的“特权”，阿比盖尔将数十名她看不惯的女子以“女巫”之名送上了绞刑架，这其中就有约翰（丹尼尔·戴-刘易斯 Daniel Day Lewis 饰）的妻子伊莉莎贝斯（琼·艾伦 Joan Allen 饰）。约翰一直都将阿比盖尔的狼子野心看在眼里，但由于两人之间的情人关系，他只得保持缄默，直到阿比盖尔将魔爪伸向了伊莉莎贝斯，约翰才明白事态的严重性。约翰向法官告发了阿比盖尔的罪行，然而，却没有人相信他的“胡言乱语”。

回复 :The history of Danish country church architecture is told by showing scenes of how the church was used by the congregation, beginning with the celebration of mass in a small and simple wooden church 800 years ago, and ending with the congregation singing in a village church of to-day. The development and the growth of the pattern of church architecture is shown.Dreyer in this film shows a series of churches from different periods with churchgoers in period clothing. Each period is separated by a shot of a church bell double-exposed on the sky. Although the film has a vibrant and instructive way of communicating the different epochs and styles to students, it does not exhibit the artistic quality that usually distinguishes a Dreyer film, except perhaps in some of the costumes, which were originally made for Day of Wrath.The board of Dansk Kulturfilm in autumn 1945 decided that their planned church film would exclusively be about village churches. Dreyer would rework the script that was written by editor and folk high-school principal Bernhard Jensen, aided by a committee of experts consisting of architect H. Lønborg-Jensen and Victor Hermansen, curator at the National Museum of Denmark. Dreyer had a first draft ready in mid-March, entitled Kirken er et gammelt Hus ("The Church Is an Old House"), which was distributed to the members of the committee for their comments.In the last half of July, Dreyer and Victor Hermansen travelled the country to look at suitable churches. They researched the details and at Dreyer’s request a number of technical changes were made to the churches, including the removal of porcelain holders for electrical wiring in Tveje Merløse Church.On 4 July, Dreyer went in advance to Ringkøbing. Shooting was set to start a few days later with the arrival of the director of photography, Preben Frank, who had fallen off a ladder and broken his leg, Fortunately, he was ready to cautiously start working again within a few days, with his leg in a cast.Otherwise, the production went without a glitch. Everywhere, Dreyer said, they were well received at the vicarages and they had no problem getting enough extras. On 1 august, they returned to Copenhagen with almost all their footage in the can. They only needed to film the church in Skelby, where the weather had been against them, plus a Swedish wooden church in Hedared. The economy was distressed so soon after the war, especially when it came to foreign currency, but there were no real wooden churches left in Denmark and building an interior set in the studio would be too expensive.The finished film was shown for the first time on 24 September 1947 to a small, closed circle, which included the Minister for Ecclesiastical Affairs. In December 1947, as was Dansk Kulturfilm’s standard practice, the film was presented to the press, politicians and others on a programme with four other short films.
