The town of Barrow, Alaska (now Utqiaġvik), is preparing for its annual "30 Days of Night", a period during the winter with a month-long polar night. As the town gets ready, a stranger arrives from a large ship and sabotages the town's communications and transports. Barrow's sheriff, Eben Oleson, investigates and also learns that his estranged wife, Stella, missed the last plane out of town and must stay the 30 days.
