Several friends travel to Sweden to study as anthropologists a summer festival that is held every ninety years in the remote hometown of one of them. What begins as a dream vacation in a place where the sun never sets, gradually turns into a dark nightmare as the mysterious inhabitants invite them to participate in their disturbing festive activities.
A horror film that withholds darkness entirely, staging its dread under a sun that never sets. The terror here is patient and floral, built from smiling faces and ritual choreography that tighten around you by degrees. Grief becomes a wound the film keeps pressing, until warmth itself feels like a trap you willingly entered.
