A fictional exploration of a scandal that rocked a tight-knit community, Sahkanaga brings a transformative power to meticulously authentic storytelling. Paul, the teenage son of the local funeral director, makes a shocking discovery when he finds that Chris, the local crematorium owner, has been dumping the bodies in the adjoining woods. Aware of the repercussions this could have for his father’s reputation, Paul keeps the news to himself. However, as he embarks upon a relationship with the granddaughter of the recently deceased sheriff, the struggle to contain the grim truth proves too much.
