During the Klondige Gold Rush, misanthropic cattle driver Ben and his talkative, elderly partner Rube clash with the law in Alaska. To avoid jail they agree to work for a saloon owner, delivering her supplies to a newly booming, law‑less Canadian town. There they meet innocent yet untamed Renee, confront the relentless Gannon, who represents the law and the noose, and navigate a world of gamblers, losers, and fear.
