The dead are coming back to life outside the isolated Mi’gMaq reserve of Red Crow, except for its indigenous inhabitants who are strangely immune to the zombie plague. Traylor, the local tribal law enforcement, armed with a gun, a hangover, and a six-pack, must protect his son’s pregnant girlfriend, apocalyptic refugees, and drunken reserve riff raff from the hordes of walking white corpses infesting the streets of Red Crow.
