The film opens with a small hiking lantern being placed on uneven, muddy ground with two voices discussing the ideal place for setting up their camp. A mutual decision of exploring further and later coming back for the lantern is made. A couple of hours before, in a different part of the forest, a wildlife enthusiast, out on a hike alone, requests a lift from an incoming SUV driver.
In the unsettling and mysterious depths of the forest, a set of unexplained developments take place. It is the image of rope knots, a loud thud and a pair of wet slippers that are invoked within the narrative, aiming to disconcert the viewer further.
