It is yet to say which is more unyielding: love, grief, or faith. Owing to one or the other, Johan, a grieving father, plunges into the Deep Forest to seek answers for the unnatural death of his son and discover its supernatural culprit, if he’s even real. Inspired by the ballad “Der Erlkönig” by Franz Schubert and Johann Von Goethe.
