Inspired by true events.

Two young girls alone at home on the South Dakota prairie hear a baby crying outside in a blizzard. Miles from any neighbors, with no way to call for help, they must decide if they should open their door to strangers and dangers. Mustering courage, they find an Indian family outside badly in need of shelter. The girls immediately take action to rescue them. But later, with the blizzard still in force, one sister battles with what she learns, and what she has been told, about the Native people. Has she made a mistake bringing them into her home?

A pair of baby moccasins become a pivotal point for their relationship.
