The Story

Hoping to rekindle an old friendship, childhood buddies Ron and Erik set out for a day’s ice-fishing, on the last day of the ice-fishing season. However, they discover that now in adulthood their comradeship is on thin ice, which easily cracks; one man behaves like a child, the other man like a too-grown-up. Imagination and reason divided. With the help of three mysterious women they meet as they travel further on the ice, can Ron and Erik find a way to reconnect, re-unite, and enjoy a new friendship? And more importantly, catch that elusive giant fish, as the ice begins to melt…
