Isabelle is alone in Strasbourg. The day after her partner leaves to travel abroad, she receives news of her father''s suicide back home in Crystal Palace. Isabelle misses her flight back to London, opting to stay in her partner''s empty flat over the winter. Obsessed with the strange coincidences in Strasbourg''s turbulent history, she seeks to slowly dissolve into the past, succumbing to dreams as she researches the city. Stalked by the unnerving spirit of the Erl-King she fears something else has died along with her father; the spectres of Europe communicating a hidden truth.
