[1][2] The Norwegian city in which Leonora (Gitte Witt) and Jacob (Thomas Gullestad) live with their little daughter Alice (Tuva Olivia Remman), was hit by a nuclear disaster.

However the overly charming hotel director, Mathias (Thorbjørn Harr), personally steps in and welcomes the young girl to his "wonderland" (referring to her being named Alice).

As Leo navigates through the red labyrinthine corridors, she finds odd trapdoors and strange men in white overalls, but no Alice.

She refuses, and Jacob, unwilling to see his wife die, attacks one of the men working in the butchery to save her, being stabbed to death in the process.

The pair find the streets outside just as desolate and hopeless as before, and it is next to the body of a starved boy in the road that the two stop, turning back to see a golden light shining down from above on the hotel in the distance.

'[5] Karine Adelgaard of Heaven of Horror gave the film a negative review, stating that 'For a while the plot works really well, offering a quite immersive experience.
