Body

Forestry student Anja Grimm finds herself in the same remote forest where she vacationed with her parents as a child when her father disappeared without a trace. Shortly after her arrival, a brutal murder takes place.

Soon, Anja's suspicion that the perpetrator knows something about her father's fate arouses wariness and hostility from the villagers, and the police have reservations about her investigations. When it turns out that Anja can read the signs of the forest like an open book, forces mobilize in the village that seem ready for anything.
