Economic Protectionism (1916)

Set in the splendor of fall in a small New England village, appropriately name Autumn Bay, lives a beautiful and accomplished Christian singer, Hope McCaffrey. Her love of Christ, Jessie her soul mate and her village is where she finds her refuge from the demands of stardom.Constantly bombarded with non-believers and the crazy antics of family and friends Hope presses on through challenging odds, refusing to give up, all the while spreading the gospel to lost loved ones, rebellious friends, and stubborn strangers.Hope’s community’s shaken when a new shiny fast food conglomerate threatens to move in and invade the centuries old scenery. Citizens of Autumn Bay urge the new comers to go back to the big modern city and leave their timeless old buildings to stand strong and proud. The small band of north easterners have branded hundreds of years of cultivated roots and wish to be left alone without any embellishments to their delicate world.Mysterious fires interrupt the tranquil movement when a zealous villager continues time and again to burn down the nearly completed framing of the unwanted pesky fast food enterprise. All are suspicious of each other and fingers point in more than one direction.
