A dramatization of the true story of four men of the North West Mounted Police who, in 1910, set out on a patrol from Fort McPehreson in Canada's Nortwest Territories to Dawson City, Yukon, 500 miles away - and who never reached their destination.

Described by one critic as 'Ballykissangel meets Apollo 13', this short (26 minute) film is based on the extraordinary true story of a Donegal 'ham' radio enthusiast who made contact with a Soviet cosmonaut stranded on the MIR Space station during the summer of 1991.
