Set in the wild forests of Nova Scotia, this Canadian psychodrama deals with the tragic travails of a young Englishman who has come there to find his long-lost father. But instead of a family reunion, he ends up entangled with a beautiful young girl and her mother after the girl sees him bathing in the nude and brings him home to work on their farm. Daughter Rauchine is quite attracted to him, but so is her mother Megan. This creates considerable tension because mentally unstable Megan is the jealous type and is prone to acts of terrifying violence.
