In the 1860s, fiercely independent French-Canadian Vivienne Le Coudy embarks on a journey with Danish immigrant Holger Olsen, attempting to forge a life together in the dusty town of Elk Flats, Nevada. When Holger decides to go fight for the Union in the burgeoning Civil War, Vivienne must fend for herself, which isn't easy in a town controlled by a corrupt mayor.

00:01No, Weston!
00:11Damn you, Weston!
00:13God damn it!
00:20So where are you from, Vivienne?
00:23It's a very long story.
00:26I have plenty of time.
00:31Why did you go to San Francisco?
00:34To see the end of the world.
00:37This is it?
00:39The place you chose of all the places you have seen.
00:41No flowers, no garden at all.
00:44You live like a dog.
00:46A happy dog.
00:48You have to tell me where you want me to plant your trees.
00:54You are still a dog.
00:57Can I have your attention, ladies and gentlemen?
01:00I am Sergeant Webb of the California Regiment.
01:03We need volunteers. We want to fight to save the Union.
01:06We're looking for men of honor.
01:08I'm thinking about enlisting.
01:10This is not your problem. This is not your country.
01:12It's the right thing to do, fighting against slavery.
01:15We have a life together now.
01:18It is only beginning.
01:20Be my wife.
01:22You cannot make things right with a consolation prize.
01:27No sense being all alone on a night like this.
01:30No different than any other.
01:32I am fine, Mr. Jeffries.
01:34No, you most certainly are.
01:46It makes no sense for you to be here now, Weston.
01:57Is there going to be a problem, Mr. Schiller?
02:00I don't believe so, Alfred.
02:04I shouldn't have left.
02:06I never wanted to be saved.
