Giacomo Talamini

A young man's odyssey to erase his pain and nightmares leads him to question his schizophrenia diagnosis. He seeks answers in Sicily, where spirits and curses still evoke fear among locals.

XVIII century. Winter is upon a tiny and remote mountain community. Young Elk, son of the village chief, suffers from an apparently incurable illness. As the adults leave the village looking for a remedy, Elk and a few other kids remain alone. Only then, a sinister entity emerges from their people’s legends and begins to torment them. A menace only Elk is prepared to face.
