  Nature is not merely wild; it is watching, waiting, and relentlessly hungry.
   
  When two friends embark on a scenic canoe trip down the remote, untamed reaches of the Danube River, they expect a peaceful communion with the elements. But after pitching their tent on a shifting, desolate island overgrown with countless, swaying willow bushes, an uncanny dread takes hold. The river is violently rising, the wind howls like a living beast, and their fragile camp is besieged by unseen, gigantic forces. Slowly, they realize they have trespassed into an alien domain—a thin veil between worlds where unfathomable cosmic entities demand a dreadful sacrifice. Trapped and stalked by impossible, psychological phenomena, they must fight not only for their survival, but for their sanity.
