Segen

Travelling through the mountains during the time of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, an old coffee merchant (Felix) is attacked by wolves during a snowstorm. He is saved by the inhabitants of a lodge nearby but quickly realises that they might not be what they appear. One way or another, Felix will have to spend the night there to survive the increasingly violent snowstorm, which could end up being a segen (blessing) or a curse.
