It is the seventies, at the height of flower power. Star has just joined Drop City, a hippie commune in sunny California living the simple, natural life. But underneath the drugs, music and transcendent bliss, she slowly discovers tensions and sexual rivalries that threaten to split the community apart. A world away in Boynton, a tiny town in the interior of Alaska, Sess Harder, a pioneer who actually does live off the land, hunting, trapping and fishing, yearns for someone to share the harsh winters with him. When the authorities threaten to close down Drop City, the hippies abandon camp and head up north to Alaska, the last frontier. But neither they nor the inhabitants of Boynton are completely prepared for each other - and as the two communities collide, unexpected friendships and dangerous enmities are born.

Zustand: Bueno. : En la década de los setenta, en pleno apogeo del flower power, Star se une a Drop City, una comuna hippie en la soleada California que vive una vida sencilla y natural. Sin embargo, bajo las drogas, la música y la felicidad trascendente, descubre lentamente tensiones y rivalidades sexuales que amenazan con dividir a la comunidad. A un mundo de distancia, en Boynton, un pequeño pueblo en el interior de Alaska, Sess Harder, un pionero que realmente vive de la tierra, cazando, atrapando y pescando, anhela que alguien comparta los duros inviernos con él. Cuando las autoridades amenazan con cerrar Drop City, los hippies abandonan el campamento y se dirigen al norte, a Alaska, la última frontera. Pero ni ellos ni los habitantes de Boynton están completamente preparados el uno para el otro, y cuando las dos comunidades chocan, nacen amistades inesperadas y enemistades peligrosas.
