In a household where no pets are allowed, a dog, in cahoots with his little boy master, passes himself off as a stuffed animal. Woofy and Anthony have forged a special bond which has led to Anthony taking the dog home and claiming to have won a stuffed animal at school. From that day on, the dog has been living a secret life. But for both, it's a dangerous game in a household where Anthony's mother, as fussy a housekeeper as there has ever been, has laid down the law: no animals allowed!

On a cold October night in 1991, an unspeakable event rocks a small town in Quebec, forever haunting a family who tries to hide their dark secret. Thirty years later these secrets buried deep in the past resurface, sending the family on an unstoppable pursuit of reconciliation.
