Synopsis

On a cold winter’s day in 1940, Jules and his family move in with his uncle, mayor of a settler village in northern Quebec. Because of a rare skin disease, he has no friends. So his greatest wish is to get better. When his dog Flagrant runs off into the forest, Jules has no choice but to run away from home to find him. Along the way, he meets Asha, a mysterious native girl. Together, they venture to the other side of the forest, where nature is full of life and secrets.
