In the unforgiving landscape of 18th-century Denmark, Captain Ludvig Kahlen embarks on a perilous quest to establish a colony on a seemingly impenetrable heath. His mission, sanctioned by the king, is to claim a vast, yet barren expanse of land and transform it into a thriving settlement. This endeavor, however, will not go unchallenged. The local lord, fueled by a ruthless determination to preserve his dominion over the region, views Kahlen's ambitions as a direct threat to his power and authority.
