Plot Summary

The story follows a thrill-seeking journalist named Adela, who goes undercover to investigate a dangerous subculture. She infiltrates a band of Neo-Nazi punks who are following a cryptic skin map into the frozen, isolated forests of Norway.

The group believes they can find and summon the Norse god Odin to achieve a white supremacist destiny. However, upon entering the woods, they encounter a terrifying force that is far older, stranger, and more malevolent than they anticipated. No gods arrive to save them as they face a relentless fight for survival.
