Plot Summary for
Disappearances (2002)

Quebec Bill Bonhomme, a hardy schemer and indefatigable optimist, tries desperate to raise money to preserve his endangered herd through the rapidly approaching winter. He resorts to whiskey-smuggling, a traditional family occupation. Quebec Bill takes his son, Wild Bill, on the journey. Also Henry Coville, an inscrutable professional whiskey-runner, and Rat Kinneson, Quebec Bill's perpetually disconsolate hired man. Together, they cross the border into vast reaches of Canadian wilderness for an unforgettable four days "full of terror, full of wonder."
