Gods’ Hill is a reinterpretation of the Myth of Faust where Paula and Pedro, a documentary filmmaker and her producer, research about several famous people including Itziar Castro, Will Shephard and Pau Escobar, who have received a mysterious invitation to attend ‘The Harvest’, a celebration to take place in a small village in Castilla la Mancha, where they will be awarded for their careers within the filmmaking industry. Working side by side with Pau, Itziar and Will, Paula will uncover a dark legend surrounding ‘The Harvest’: the guests’ real intention is to offer their souls to an ancestral God living in the mountains in order to achieve fame and success in their careers.
