"I just want to be loved, Will, that's all. That's what I wanted from them. But they wouldn't share like mother taught-so I stopped playing nice and- took what I needed myself. And now that I have, Will, do you-do you think you could love me too?" 

Will is a young soldier who finds himself separated from his comrades after a broken and bloody battle. He journeys across unknown territory in the hopes of finding some answers when he comes across Victor, a blind farmer in need of help. Will learns that not all is as seems, especially when it comes to the innocent old man and his daughter who despises him. The wind whispers dark secrets to Will, who learns that there is more to the clumsy Victor than meets the eye. Despite all the farm's warnings, Will finds his curiosity ensnared  by the horrific knots that cage Victor's sanity. And it is when Will discovers the final piece, that he finds himself trapped in a vicious, dark comedy within a broken mind.
