Set in a distant and unknown land, the film follows the journey of a young deer woman named Yssabeau, who out of curiosity, adventures into this unknown culture and attempts to adapt to it. In doing so, her values and impulses will be confronted and a question will rise: How much of her self can be removed from her before she can call herself herself no longer? Contemporary fairytale based on an old ballade by François Villon as well as inspired by the “Deer Dance”, a hunting ritual still practiced today in northern Mexico.
