Inspired by Canuck WWI flying ace Billy Bishop, two small town men join the war effort, landing on the front lines of Northern France in August 1918. Cut off from resupply and reinforcements, at the beginning of the 100 Days Offensive to end the Great War. For three days they must hold the line at all costs, as the fate of the Great War hangs in the balance. Fortunately, their ranks include legendary Anishinaabe sniper Francis “Peggy” Pegahmagabow.
