This is a minimalist treat that will get under your skin, just like the central soundtrack. Afire is a game of relationships, professional crisis, and melancholy at the same time. You may hate Leon, but I loved him precisely because of who he was. Nadja will enchant you with her approach to life and spontaneity. Each additional character has something to offer. It is truly a sensitive matter that will touch you, just like a forest fire that is approaching uncontrollably.

Literary cinematic boredom on the Baltic with with a suspiciously small thought displacement.
