- EXTENDED SYNOPSIS
Siglo VIII. El cristianismo se extiende por Europa mientras las creencias paganas desaparecen. Ante el avance del ejército de Carlomagno al atravesar los Pirineos, el líder del valle pide ayuda a una diosa ancestral. Mediante un pacto de sangre, derrota al enemigo dando su vida a cambio, pero antes, hace prometer a su hijo Eneko que protegerá y liderará a su pueblo en la nueva era.
Años más tarde, Eneko afronta esa promesa con una misión: recuperar el cuerpo de su padre enterrado de forma pagana junto al tesoro de Carlomagno. Pese a su fe cristiana, necesitará la ayuda de Irati, una enigmática pagana de la zona. Los dos jóvenes se adentrarán en un extraño e inhóspito bosque donde “todo lo que tiene nombre existe”. (Filmax)
It is the 8th century and Charlemagne’s army is devastating the Pyrenees. In an attempt to challenge this onslaught, the highlander leader of the valley asks for help from the ancestral gods of his lands, whose disappearance, brought about by the arrival of Christianity, is inevitable. After swearing a blood oath, he manages to defeat the enemy in exchange for his life. But before his death, he makes his son, Eneko, promise that he will be a good leader for the valley.
Years later, now a grown man of Christian faith, Eneko is preparing to fulfill his promise when, in strange circumstances, his father’s buried body and the treasure captured from the Franks disappears, casting serious doubts on his lineage. If Eneko is to fulfill his destiny, he will have to recover them and so he enlists the help of a young, local, pagan woman called Irati. The two of them will have to journey deep into a strange and inhospitable forest, where everything that has a name exists. (Filmax - International Sales)
