A young and successful doctor is tortured by recurrent nightmares after an unintentional death of a child. The line between dreams and reality starts to blur as the faceless killer from those nightmares comes to life and hunts her down.

After separating from a trekking group to look for his lost best friend, a young trekker goes through 7 days of searching for traces and fighting to survive alone in the most deadly route. When he almost loses his consciousness, an eerily familiar voice guides his way.
