A meditative documentary-drama about a couple living in deliberate harmony with nature, celebrating self-sufficiency and an alternative way of life.

Norman is not just an admirer of nature, he's a part of it. He survives the harshness of the climate and the wildlife by coexisting with it. With his wife Nebraska, they live almost entirely off the land, making money by selling their furs.
