Ce film d'animation plein d'humour inspiré d'une chanson populaire, «The Blackfly Song», raconte une lutte à finir. Celle que doivent mener des hommes travaillant à un barrage hydro-électrique quand ils deviennent la proie des mouches noires, cette engeance ailée et sanguinaire qui leur dispute sans cesse le droit d'occuper le même territoire qu'elle.
