Description
Gunnar Huttunen arrives in a quiet village with a singular purpose: to restore its dilapidated mill. However, his imposing presence and peculiar nocturnal howling quickly set him apart, leading the wary villagers to label him as mad. Forced to flee the community that ostracizes him, Gunnar must navigate the unforgiving wilderness and the often harsher realities of human society. This darkly whimsical tale explores themes of conformity, the fear of the unknown, and the struggle for belonging in a world that often rejects what it doesn't understand.
