Adventures in the Land of Asha

On a cold winter’s day in 1940, Jules and his family move to live with his uncle Jovite, mayor of a settler’s village in northern Quebec. Jules is banned from school because of his rare skin disease. His dog Spark becomes his only friend. When he runs away into the wild forest, Jules has no choice but to venture out to find him. Along the way, he meets Asha, a mysterious indigenous girl who assures him that her mother could cure him. The problem is that she doesn’t know where she is. Together, they decide to go looking for her, but what is at the other end of the forest is not what they had imagined.
