Fresh out of prison, Git rescues a former best friend (now living with Git’s girlfriend) from a beating at the hands of loan sharks. He’s now in trouble with the mob boss, Tom French, who sends Git to Cork with another debtor, Bunny Kelly, to find a guy named Frank Grogan, and take him to a man with a friendly face at a shack across a bog.

Portraying the sinister tones of old fairy tales in a dream-like or theatrical style, this surreal film focuses mainly on the young girl Kerttu’s journey to rescue her brother Kai from the evil Snow Queen.
