Drama, Romance (Locations: Germany, Canada Ontario, Indian reserves, Manitoulin Island)
In den 70-er Jahren wird in einem romantischen und mystischen Ontario durch einen Huronen-Indianer ein Baby im Haus einer deutschen Familie übergeben, die nach Kanada emigrierte. Untergetauchte Eheleute Leonards werden von der deutschen Justiz gesucht, weil der Ehemann Erich ein ehemaliger Nazi-Wächter im KZ - Lager war – so wagen sie einen legalen Adoptionsantrag nicht.
Nun nach vielen Jahren, erfährt John Leonard 39, ein karismatischer Lehrer eines Deutschen Internats zufällig durch einen DNA-Test, dass sein Vater (86) gar nicht sein biologischer Vater ist. Mit seinen Schülern fährt John daraufhin zur Klassenreise nach Ontario, um dem Rätsel seiner Ahnen nähner zu kommen und den mysteriösen Indianer zu finden, der ihn als Baby aus dem Stamm der Huronen vermittelte. Leider gestaltet sich die Suche nach seinen Ahnen nicht grade einfach für John, denn der schlaue Häuptling Machuchu (98), ihm die Namen seiner verstorbene Eltern nicht hergeben will. Auch ein gewisser Wegweiser durch Ontario Greg legt ihm Steine im Weg.
Bei seiner Suche helfen John seine treue Kollegin und Geschichtelehrerin Ingrid (42) und auch die Schülerin Sofie Krüger(15), die heimlich in John verliebt ist.

"The Huron country
Many theories have been devised to solve the problem as to what part of North America was originally occupied by the great Huron-Iroquois Family; much speculation has been indulged in to determine, at least approximately, the date of their dismemberment, when a dominant, homogeneous race, one in blood and language, was broken up and scattered over a wide expanse; surmises to no end have been hazarded relative to thecause of the disruption, and especially that of the fierce antagonism which existed between the Iroquois and the Hurons at the time when Europeans came in contact with these tribes;.."
"With the opening years of the seventeenth century reliable Huron history begins, and the geographical position of their country becomes known when French traders and missionaries, at that epoch, penetrate the wilderness for the first time as far as what was then termed "the Freshwater Sea". The region then inhabited by the three greats groups, the Hurons proper, the Petuns, and the Neutrals, lay entirely within the confines of the present province of Ontario, in the Dominion of Canada, with the exception of three or four neutral villages which stood as outposts beyond the Niagara River in New York State. "
"Father Chaumonot (1611-1693), Jesuit missionary in New York and Canada, who was thoroughly versed in the Huron and Iroquois tongues, and who had lived as missionary among both nations, says in his autobiography that "as this language [the Huron] is, so to speak the mother of many others, particularly of the five spoken by the Iroquois, when I was sent among the latter, although at the time I could not understand the language, it took me but a month to master it; and later, having studied the Onondaga dialect only, when present at thecouncils of the Five Nations assembled, I found that by a special help of God I could understand them all."
