North Country is a 2005 American drama film directed by Niki Caro, starring Charlize Theron, Frances McDormand, Sean Bean, Richard Jenkins, Michelle Monaghan, Jeremy Renner, Woody Harrelson and Sissy Spacek. The screenplay by Michael Seitzman was inspired by the 2002 book Class Action: The Story of Lois Jenson and the Landmark Case That Changed Sexual Harassment Law by Clara Bingham and Laura Leedy Gansler, which chronicled the case of Jenson v. Eveleth Taconite Company.
In 1989, Josey Aimes flees from her abusive husband back to her hometown in northern Minnesota with her children, Sammy and Karen, and moves in with her parents, Alice and Hank. Hank is ashamed of Josey, who had Sammy as a teenager by an unknown father, and believes Josey is promiscuous. While working as a hairdresser, Josey reconnects with an old acquaintance, Glory Dodge, who works at the local iron mine and suggests Josey do the same. Josey's pursuit of the job further strains her relationship with Hank, who also works at the mine, so she and her children move in with Glory and her husband Kyle.

I'm heading back to the north country
With the cold wind in my eye
I'll be there by sunset
Before the first snow flies
Rustlin' leaves are on the ground
This crazy feeling hangin' round
I'll remember now and then
But don't ask when I'll be back again
Had this dream late one night
'Bout working on the gang of the
Mull River drive
Danny, me and Freddie Wright
Making a dollar a day justto stay
alive
Rustlin' leaves on the ground
A cold rain coming down
Sleeping there on the dark, damp earth
For what it's worth
no reason can be found
So if you're heading back to the
north country
WIth the sunset in your eye
You may find me on the rocky shore
of that lonely isle
Rustlin' leaves on the ground
A cold hard rain coming down
Sleeping there on the dark, damp earth
For what it's worth, no reason
can be found
I'm heading back to the north country
With the cold wind in my eye
I'll be there by sunset
Before the first snow flies
Rustlin' leaves on the ground
A cold hard rain coming down
I'll remember now and then
But don't ask when I'll be back again
Rustlin' leaves on the ground
A cold hard rain coming down
I'll remember now and then
But don't ask when I'll be back again
