Behind the wheel of his car, Niels ventures into a dark forest.
Swallowed by the night, he finds himself overcome by uncertainty.
Just as the urge to turn back becomes almost impossible to resist, he encounters a figure on the edge of the metaphysical. Ike, a kind of alter ego, determined to make him face his fears and leave his doubts behind.
"The light hides beyond the darkness"
In a world of absurdity and surrealism borrowing from the codes of horror cinema, this simple story explores the different stages we go through in the pursuit of a dream.
The fear that stands in the way of our deepest desires. The determination shaken by doubt. The temptation to give up at the slightest sign of adversity.
And that peculiar madness which we summon from somewhere deep within ourselves to overcome our doubts.
