Synopsis

In 1931, a mapmaker lands a plane in the Arctic to map unrecorded regions. He takes an Eskimo boy with tuberculosis back to civilization where he is healed and indoctrinated in a Catholic foster home.

The Eskimo meets a "half-breed" girl (father was French, mother was Indian) and they fall in love. They are separated and the Eskimo returns to the Arctic.

Years later he encounters the mapmaker again and sends a message to his love via the mapmaker. He joins the air force to fight Hitler and runs into her again, but there are obstacles that threaten his friendships and relationships.
