In a remote Icelandic village blanketed by relentless snow, a young boy's arrival to return a book of poetry sets in motion a series of events that blur the lines between life and death. As the community seeks solace in shared stories and warmth, a perilous journey into the fjords tests the bonds of friendship and the resilience of the human spirit against the unforgiving power of nature.
