CHILDHOOD VOWS

‘The greatest treasure is buried in childhood memories.’

As 17-year-old Wilfred packs his belongings into cardboard boxes, ready to leave his small town for University, his childhood friend, Petra, brings back a dug-up time capsule tin box that they buried together many years ago.

Even though Petra rejected Wilfred’s confession of love the night before, she forces him to join her on one last epic quest. They must bury the box of treasures back into the depths of the nearby bush where, they say, a monster lurks.

Surely enough, when they venture too far, the monster attacks. Wilfred knows that he must protect not only the love of his life, but the childhood memories that they shared together.
