Buddy, a white trapper, and Chinook, a Native American woman, build a home where they must raise their children, Jérémie and Kathleen. The plot unfolds through episodes that show their daily struggle against the often hostile natural elements, which shape their character and resilience. Furthermore, the family finds themselves caught up in clashes with various indigenous tribes—conflicts that are not presented in black-and-white terms, but rather include their share of violence and injustice, reflecting the historical complexity of the conquest of the West.
