Summary:
"French-Canadian movie about the colonization of Abitibi. It shows the hard life of the pioneers in a region where everything was to do. The «promised land» turned out to be not so great after all. Trees, trees, trees, and they told the guys that it was going to be a great farm land!"--Imdb.com.
