What happens

Northern Pursuit is a 1943 American World War II adventure thriller romance film directed by Raoul Walsh and starring Errol Flynn as a member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) who tries to uncover a Nazi plot against the Allied war effort. The film was set in Canada during the early years of the war. Walsh called the film a "quickie". Filmink called it "one of Errol's lesser war films and was far closer to the silliness of Desperate Journey than the more serious Edge of Darkness." (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
