Set against the backdrop of 1880s Europe, the narrative follows Norwegian Johan Adrian Jacobsen as he brings two Inuit families to participate in a controversial ethnographical exhibit, often referred to as a 'human zoo.' Displayed across major cities like Hamburg and Paris, the exhibit takes a dark turn as the health of the participants deteriorates, leading to a series of tragic deaths. This story highlights the exploitation of indigenous cultures and raises ethical questions about the treatment of individuals in the name of entertainment.
