Thrown into an ice-fishing tradition of beer and cigarettes, Michael finds himself caught in the crossfire of his father’s wrath when he doesn’t quite fit into the ritual shared by the men in his family. Smoke is a beautifully rendered story of a young boy and the love-hate relationship he has to leave behind in the face of his father’s imminent death.
