What happens when an ordinary family, living just south of the Arctic Circle, bans all grocery store food from their house for one year?
Add three skeptical teenagers, one reluctant husband, no salt, no caffeine, no sugar and -40 temperatures.
For one year, filmmaker Suzanne Crocker feeds her family of five, only food that can be hunted, fished, gathered, grown or raised around Dawson City, Yukon in Northern Canada.
Ultimately the story becomes a celebration of community and the surprising bounty of food that even a tiny community in the far North can provide.
