It’s Christmas season in a small town somewhere in the Austrian countryside where, following tradition, the young local men parade in dæmon-like masks and costumes to frighten the children and chase away the winter. A young couple meet for a drink in a pub but are interrupted by a group of these paraders who initiate a seemingly friendly drinking challenge, changing their lives permanently.
