Mavis Dogblood is a Mohawk painter. She has been living in a world of memories and grief. Her husband Jessie Lightning vanished before her eyes in a thunderstorm. This has left her lost and absent from the world. She has just started to paint again. She paints stories of the Iroquois Peacemaker, stories Jessie used to tell her. Not only to help pay the bills now but to keep his memory close to her. The new man in her life, Bug, patiently awaits for her to resolve her emotional struggle. To complicate the scene, Jessie's first family, ex-wife Kateri and 12-year-old son Zeus have moved into the house next door. On the way to New York City to exhibit her paintings, Mavis stops to finally meet Jessie's grandmother Josephine. Here she finds peace of mind and peace of heart.
