The Tragedy at Deer Creek

La photographe Charlotte Gray se rend à Deer Creek pour documenter un camp de bûcherons abandonné depuis longtemps, en vue de son prochain livre, « Forgotten Frontiers ». Dans cette aventure en point-and-click, elle découvre non seulement un camp délabré, mais aussi, enfouie sous la neige de l’Alaska, une histoire poignante de famille, d’amour et de loyauté.

In the winter of 1997, photographer Charlotte Gray ventures into the remote woods of Alaska, to the derelict logging camp at Deer Creek, in order to complete her project 'Forgotten Frontiers'. Having photographed ghost towns throughout the Midwest, Charlotte expects to find the worn remains of a piece of American labor history, but what she finds is a place that seems to be eerily frozen in time, harboring numerous secrets sleeping deep beneath the Alaskan snow. Bit by bit, she finds fragments from the lives of the people who once lived here. Piecing together the fragments, Charlotte slowly starts to unravel the tragedy that befell Deer Creek and its people.
