Jana is about to have a beautiful weekend in the mountains with her boyfriend – at least, that’s what she thinks.

There’s only one person who can help her.

David Payne
Raised in Prague, David Payne grew up with two passions: A love for ancient history and mythology and a love for film. After completing his studies in archaeology, he decided to pursue his dream of becoming a filmmaker. In his view, film is but a new way of telling the same stories our ancestors would tell each other thousands of years ago.
