A story about love and loss, woven with threads of mythology and brought to life through rock ballads. After the death of his wife, singer Dainius experiences a despondent loneliness and longs to meet his beloved. He wants to create a portal to his dreams that will allow him to transcend the laws of matter. In a forest surrounded by marshes, Dainius builds a house where he lives, translating and deciphering dreams, greedily consuming their meaning. Meanwhile, the deserted world is looking for him: when will Dainius wake up from that, which no longer exists?
