Produktbeschreibung

In the aftermath of a disaster, the devoutly religious Mann familyas seen through the eyes of the youngest son, Abel Mannseek a new home. At the same time, another set of survivors Fran, Rhea, Ky and a boy called Lughare also searching for a safe place to settle. The two groups encounter each other in a deserted village within a vast forest. In the beginning, their attempt to co-exist together in this isolated setting seems successful, and a social contract is collectively agreed and various relationships between the two communities develop over time. Fran embarks on a relationship with one of the Mann brothers, while the two teenage boys, Abel and Lugh, also become intimate as they grow older. Differences of belief between the two groups soon intensify, and as the social contract is overturned and replaced by a theocracy, the community descends into chaos. Mindful of myths and fairytales, the forest that encircles the village in The Kindly Ones is a dark and menacing environment, inhabited by unknown beasts that represent the dangers that lurk beyond the edges of civilization.
