THE SLEEPING BEAST

Specials

The presence of children is strictly forbidden inside the industrial complex. Undaunted, the young friends have still managed to gain access to their own personal adventure playground over and over again. Here they can escape the monotony of everyday life, frolicking far removed from strict parents and letting their fairy-tale-like fantasies run wild – that is, until Elmar, a guard, catches them by surprise. 10-year-old Kristjan is faced with a moral dilemma: Should he keep his promise, or turn his back on his friends in order to help Elmar? The situation escalates: gone are the days of innocent games…
