An old legend tells that wolves usually look for a girl to protect them from human beings, their greatest enemies throughout history. Claudia is ten years old and is travelling in the car with her parents away from the city to spend the weekend in the countryside. Darkness falls over the car and its occupants whilst they drive further into the night. This is the first work by Pau Teixidor, telling the story of fear and wolves, the dead of night, death and change, an abandoned petrol station and the start of a new life. Sometimes, legends can come true (or in films which is practically the same thing).
