In Bulbus, at the bottom of a mountain, life seems to be running its course peacefully. At night, on the curling track, people talk about their business, the weather, the hens they raise, but rarely about themselves. Manuel and Amalthéa, two young people who were both struck by lightning and bear a mark on their back, meet there for the first time. They seem to be sharing a twin-love. But in Bulbus, time has stopped. This ghost-village is like a symptom of time that cannot or does not want to pass. Bulbus is a tale that has the charm of Nordic landscapes and is as dark as a detective storyline.
