In the prehistoric world, a Cro-Magnon tribe depends on an ever-burning source of fire, which eventually extinguishes. Lacking the knowledge to start a new fire, the tribe sends three warriors on a quest for more. With the tribe's future at stake, the warriors make their way across a treacherous landscape full of hostile tribes and monstrous beasts. On their journey, they encounter Ika, a woman who has the knowledge they seek.

A primal, wordless intensity radiates from the cast as they navigate a landscape where survival depends entirely on a single spark. This visual epic replaces dialogue with raw movement and guttural sounds to recreate the dawn of humanity.
