Angel, a young photographer, comes home to find a group of drunken teenagers in the courtyard of his apartment building, taunting a wounded, helpless young troll. Wanting to protect what he sees as a helpless creature, he takes it in, blissfully unaware of the chaos that awaits. As Angel dives into research on his strange new companion, it becomes clear that the troll has a powerful connection to all of humanity's most forbidden feelings - and it begins to make Angel cross boundaries he never imagined he would. Beguilingly original and strange, Troll: A Love Story is an unforgettable story of man's relationship to wild things.
