A gruesome act disturbs the fragility of nature.

synopsis

Nature is calm and quiet. Two young men wander in the forest. Suddenly, without any explanation, one of them kills the other in a gruesome act. The murderer ditches the lifeless body in the forest and flees in panic. Exhausted, he falls asleep in a wide field. Nature calms again. Then the murderer awakes to realise the horror he has committed.
