Not Wanted
UNWED MOTHER ...her story-the nation's problem!
A morally complex melodrama about shame, maternal longing, and social judgment that treats its protagonist's transgression with psychological depth rather than condemnation.
After a beautiful but unsophisticated girl is seduced by a worldly piano player and gives up her out-of-wedlock baby, her guilt compels her to kidnap another child.
