In this classic Western set in Canada, a crew of motley misfits and outsiders set off on a two-month expedition in search of a legendary cache of gold. It seems too good to be true, but there are a few hints that the tall tales they've heard about the treasure might be rooted in fact. But when the trio runs into trouble along the way, it becomes unclear if they'll ever find out the truth — or make it back with their lives intact.
