When a logger discovers a brutally mutilated body in the forest, he goes into a catatonic state and gets the unexpected help of Death herself.

A contemporary fairy tale about humans and nature, with kings, good guys, bad guys, and young heroes. Thirteen-year-old Robin lives in a world where nature is taboo. Plants are dirty, butterflies are dangerous, and the forest is strictly off-limits. The reign of terror of King Ferdinand and his Bureau for Nature Control (BNC) keeps humans and nature at a safe distance from each other. One day, Robin's mother Marjolein disappears during a mission in the forest. Against her better judgment, Robin ventures into the forest in search of answers. There she meets Wolf, an "enfant sauvage." He seems to know more...

The forest is suspiciously quiet. The wind rustles softly through the leaves, the sun reflects on the moist soil, no animals can be seen. The only thing that disturbs this peace is the panting of two jogging teenagers. When they reach an open space, tension suddenly arises.

An old man relives the night he killed the woman he loved.
