Being detained under the suspicion of having murdered her brother, Hulda is left hopeless . After being released from custody for insufficient evidence, she has nowhere to go until she meets Hjörtur, a thousand-year-old, single and homosexual vampire.
This is not a film graced by first (or even second) rate acting, though Hjörtur Sævar Steinason gives an entertaining performance as the vampire Hjörtur, all weary nihilism with the occasional wrench of spiritual anguish.
