A group of Norwegian film students set out to document a suspected bear poacher. They soon discover their subject is actually a government-employed troll hunter, tasked with keeping the country's large troll population a secret. The students join him on his patrols into the wilderness, capturing incredible footage of the dangerous creatures. They learn the complex rules of troll hunting and find themselves in over their heads as they uncover a major threat.
