Synopsis

In the hope of winning her father's approval, Karolina Ferreira, an entomologist, goes to a small Free State town to research the survival strategies of a rare moth species. Tormented by memories of her family and plagued by erotic dreams, Karolina spends her nights playing snooker, drinking whisky and dancing herself into a state of euphoria with the mysterious Kolyn. As political, spiritual and sexual tensions in the small town rise, a murder will take place, lovers will meet in the cemetery, and friendships will fall apart, as violence erupts around.
