Benoit Pilon introduces us to those who live in the vast region more than a thousand kilometres northwest of Montreal, where, in the early 1970s, the massive James Bay project forever changed the landscape and people's lives. To carry out this megaproject, one village was created (Radisson) and another moved (Fort George, now known as Chisasibi). Though most of the workers have since gone home, some chose to stay. With the hunting trips, going-away parties and still-vibrant customs, the residents of these two communities simply enjoy the Northern way of life.
