The unnamed residents of an unnamed seaside town; a constant howl whose origin cannot be traced; a ship anchored far offshore that has been waiting there for days... These are accompanied by mysterious deaths, townspeople cold-bloodedly killing their spouses, and mysterious natural phenomena. The townsfolk are ill at ease because of all that is happening, while a modest man arrives who says he has come there to work and doesn’t seem to be affected by all these signs. His only concern is to spend some time with the nurse he’s attracted to. When she notices the mark on his back, she spreads the rumor to the townspeople who are on edge, leading to growing suspicions about who the young man might be. A striking story about the Antichrist and the Awaited Savior that will spellbind you with its talented cast and images that enhance the visual experience.
