In the woods of Northeastern Washington, Katherine and her husband explore the physical and emotional struggle of how to survive when you know nothing. Together they learn how to build from the ground up-to bring in electricity and water, build a shelter, find a heat source, and gather food. This quiet but high-stakes drama is about living close to the land.

This story is set within the circle of home and children and friends and nature.

It is a story of love and loss, fortitude and authenticity. It is a weaving together of the past and the present: a meditation on the spiritual pull of the land and the physical demands it makes.

In the midst of the land and the trees, Katherine and Chris learn about trust in self and in partner.
