Description
Due to a confluence of circumstances involving a broken heart, a blown head gasket and a flint-eyed border guard, a young man ends up living in a cabin beside a lake in the Kootenay Mountains. The idyllic setting and new lifestyle give him hope that he will be able to redefine himself, escape his nightmares, and find a better way of living. But things do not work out as planned.
