An elderly Dene widower kills his abusive grandson in self-defence. Anticipating the worst, and weary of his dismal life, he summons an old friend to help him prepare for a journey to the spirit world. Meanwhile, a young Dene police officer, disillusioned by the current justice system and badgered by dreams of cultural genocide and the role of law, is caught between two worlds when he realizes the widower is guilty of the murder.
