Synopsis:

The narrative unfolds during a solitary night spent by a dwindling fire, where a small group of individuals finds themselves isolated in an unfamiliar landscape. Initially engaging in casual conversation, their tranquility is disrupted by unsettling sounds that seem to emanate from the surrounding darkness. These noises trigger a cascade of strange dreams within one of the group members, blurring the line between reality and the subconscious. The series explores themes of isolation, perception, and the fragility of mental states under duress. The atmosphere is characterized by quiet tension and a growing sense of unease as the characters grapple with inexplicable phenomena and the implications of what lies beyond their waking awareness. It's an introspective exploration of psychological suspense, focusing on character reactions to unsettling events rather than action-oriented sequences.
