An ex-soldier suffering from PTSD decides to visit his mother in his remote home village to find peace of mind.
There, 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.
