“THE WAR IS OVER, BUT NOT FOR HIM.”
An ex-soldier suffering from PTSD decides to visit his mother in his remote home village in an attempt to find some peace of mind. He participates in a mystical Spring cleansing ritual set around a temple inside a 13th-century cemetery in the middle of the forest, where he encounters a mysterious little girl. His innocent alter-ego brings him face-to-face with his inner demons and sets him on a difficult path to acceptance and redemption.
