A trapper in 1770's Canada takes an native woman for a bride, and this way-too-short made-for-television film follows their relationship. The lead actress isn't very good, and the film feels chopped up. By the time the downer ending rolls around, and the musical "score" has brought on a headache, I realized that pretty scenery does not a good film make.

(Unrated)- Mild physical violence, mild gun violence, some gore, some adult situations
