"What if the greatest liar in the Klondike was finally telling the truth?"
Alaska, 1899. The Klondike Gold Rush is bleeding to a cold, desperate halt.
Enter Jefferson "Soapy" Smith, real-life legendary conman, ruling the underworld, Soapy is now a down-on-his-luck gangster with only one thing left to care for, his desperately ill ten-year-old son, William.
When a young girl is pulled alive from a raging river clutching a salmon, a wild rumour grips the frozen camp. They say the fish CAN TALK. For Soapy, this is the ultimate gamble. Is it his grandest con yet? Mass hysteria in a town starved of hope? Or is this silent, swimming creature a genuine miracle sent to save his dying son?
When a sharp-tongued biological scientist, Dr. Kathleen Mole, arrives to dissect the truth, she brings with her a ghost from Soapy’s past that threatens to shatter his carefully constructed world.
Starring, Irish actor/comedian, Ben Keenan (Netflix’s Run Away, Eastenders), alongside Ingrid Werner (Rivals, Disney’s Disenchanted), Sam Newman (Nuremberg, Casualty), Gus FlindHenry, Alastair Braidwood, Anthony Evans-Pughe and Sylvia Young Agency performers Dougie South, and Teddy Russell.
