1910. A cabin north of the Arctic Circle. Fifteen-year-old Sig Andersson is alon
e. Alone, except for the corpse of his father, who died earlier that day after f
alling through a weak spot on the ice-covered lake. His sister, Anna, and step-m
other, Nadya, have gone to the local town for help. Then comes a knock at the do
or. It's a man, the flash of a revolver's butt at his hip, and a mean glare in h
is eyes. Sig has never seen him before but Wolff claims to have unfinished busin
ess with his father. As Sig gradually learns the awful truth about Wolff's conne
ction to his father, his thoughts are drawn to a certain box hidden on a shelf i
n the storeroom, in which lies his father's prized possession - a revolver. When
Anna returns alone, and Wolff begins to close in, Sig's choice is pulled into s
harp focus. Should he use the gun, or not?
