EN: In 1863, a group of snow-bound travelers invokes the devil, who gives them a flying canoe for them to go home. When one of them finds his wife about to die in labor, he makes a pact with the devil to save her and his newborn daughter Liza. He then cheats the devil of his prize by sacrificing himself. 25 years later, Liza wants to marry her beloved Jos, who has to go away to a remote logging camp to earn money to save his farm, but the devil is determined to ruin her happiness.

FR: Le 31 décembre 1863, de retour d’un chantier forestier, une équipe de travailleurs se retrouve coincée dans un train pendant une tempête de neige. À la suggestion de leur chef de projet, ils acceptent un arrangement avec un étrange personnage dans l’espoir de rejoindre leurs proches. Les hommes prennent alors place à bord d’un grand canot et s’envolent après avoir formulé des incantations. Mais, ce que l’équipage ignore c’est que leur âme appartient maintenant au Malin. Cependant, pour sauver ses employés, le contremaître sacrifie sa vie et brise ainsi le pacte satanique. Vingt-cinq ans plus tard, Lucifer n’a pas dit son dernier mot et entend prendre sa revanche à l’encontre de Joe Farrel, amoureux de la fille de celui qui l’a trahi, coincé dans un camp de bûcherons.
