During his search, Gates stumbles upon a discovery that leads him to a tribe of Native American descendants, believed to be the last remnants of a long-forgotten tribe, the Dogmen. These people have been living in isolation for generations, holding onto their ancient traditions and way of life, hidden from the modern world. As Gates forms an unlikely bond with the tribe, he begins to question his own life choices and his understanding of the world around him.
