A gloomy, fairly-tale-like horror about a couple stricken by a devastating tragedy. Three years after the death of their daughter, Elin and Tobias’s marriage is in ruins. The couple go on a camping trip to try to overcome the trauma and reconnect. In the woods, they encounter a strange sideshow performer dressed in white and his shady entourage. The troupe soon starts terrorizing them in a series of dreamlike episodes, luring them deeper and deeper into a maelstrom of psychological terror. The film screened in competition at Sundance Film Festival and International Rotterdam Film Festival.
