Synopsis

The film is inspired by how shamans are able to travel between two worlds and help regain your inner power.

 

The story revolves around MIRA, a 23 year old girl who has a heartache and feels empty inside. Her friend INGEBORG attempts to fill out Mira’s hole with vodka and parties, but when they meet the 500 year old shaman ULRIK, a more holistic solution arises: Mira must find her inner power animal to regain her strength. But after being put into a drum-induced trance, Mira meets something entirely unexpected.

 

Everyone has a power animal. You just have to find it.
