Valley Versus Vision
​
In pursuit of knowledge and meaning, Romas finds himself employed at a hospital in the sleepy college town of Corvallis, Oregon. Haunted by memories of his homeland of Lithuania and a traumatic childhood, he seeks solace in the forgotten structures of history. But one fateful night, an encounter with an otherworldly woman changes the course of his life forever. Romas develops a keen interest in the history of his new town, when he learns of the dark legacy of a local messianic figure, uncovering a twisted path of power and corruption that lies beneath the veil of salvation. In this revelation, Romas finds himself bound to a fate intertwined with the very forces that have haunted him.
