Summary
An evocative exploration of industrial legacy and environmental tenacity, the narrative follows a scion of a timber dynasty dispatched to the rugged Michigan frontier. Tasked by his retired lumber-magnate father to dismantle a catastrophic logjam that threatens the family’s economic hegemony, the young man encounters a formidable obstacle: a woman whose roots in the soil transcend the transactional nature of the industry. Her steadfast refusal to yield her acreage to the encroaching wood-pulp machine ignites a conflict that is as much about the preservation of the pastoral as it is about the combustible chemistry between two diametrically opposed souls. The film navigates the friction between the paternal drive for progress and the burgeoning empathy of a son caught between his inheritance and his heart, set against the backdrop of a landscape that refuses to be tamed.
