During a botched bank heist in Montreal, a robber (William Forsythe) is shot, and his teenage son (Kevin Zegers) ends up fleeing with the money. The boy heads to an agreed-upon meeting point, pursued by his dad's partner, Fury (Colm Meaney), who was doubled-crossed in the holdup. Along the way, the boy encounters Chrystal (Lolita Davidovich), a shapely redhead, who pays him special attention to make her husband jealous. A confrontation follows in the woods of northern Quebec.
