At the age of seven, two kindred spirits find each other and form a powerful bond born of loneliness. John Myron is a native Indian boy who is not completely accepted into his small Canadian town. Angela Wilson has been abandoned by a father who committed suicide, and is neglected by a mother who finds solace in drinking and one night stands. Together John and Angela are guided by their friendship and by the native Indian spirituality that binds John's people together. As they mature into adolescence, their friendship strengthens. John's feelings for Angela intensify into love, but it remains unrequited. Angela, instead, turns toward T.J., whom she sees as a ticket out of their small town. Sensing something sinister in T.J.'s relationship with Angela, John tries to protect her. His worst fears come true one tragic night when he rescues her from a shocking act of betrayal. In the aftermath, Angela flees town, unaware that she has put into motion a string of events that will change the course of both of their lives...
