LOGLINE

When yetis overrun the city of Black Peaks, a young activist and a fugitive yeti join forces against police corruption and rising hate crimes, until the creatures reveal their true nature: not monsters, but ancient, mythical beings reclaiming their place in the world.

SYNOPSIS

Black Peaks was once a quiet tourist town in the northern U.S. until real yetis appeared. Viral videos flooded the media, showing towering, white-furred beings wandering through city streets. Not myths. Not hoaxes. The yetis are here. Now thousands of them roam the city: mute, communal, often gentle, sometimes volatile. They eat garbage, sleep in parks, and organize in small clans. Most are harmless. Some are not. Meanwhile, the city government loses control, and the mountains, once the yetis’ home, are being sold off to ski resorts developers.

Amid the chaos, two parallel journeys collide:  Agh, a solitary yeti newly arrived in the city, is framed for the murder of a police officer. While hunted by authorities, he searches for his younger sister Iga, a trafficking victim held in an elite brothel. Agh cannot speak, but he mimics human slogans like “Kill Yeti”, unaware of their meaning.

Tala, a 21-year-old Native activist and ecology student, born to a displaced tribe from the region, uncovers the truth behind the murder, revealing a web of police corruption tied to human trafficking. Driven by a deep ancestral connection to the land and its forgotten beings, she decides to help Agh, risking her safety as tensions in the city spiral out of control. As public pressure mounts to classify yetis as non-human pests, ancient truths begin to surface. The yetis are not merely a lost species, they are mythic entities who have always existed on the edge of human perception. Their sudden appearance was no accident.

Now, pushed to the brink, they begin to reveal their true power, not as animals, but as original myths reclaiming a world that tried to erase them.

WHY THIS STORY

Kill Yeti turns today’s fears like immigration, social unrest, ecological collapse into compelling magical realism narrative. It asks: what happens when the creatures we othered turn out to be more human than us? It’s a story about power, erasure, and the return of what we tried to bury. A grounded dystopia where urban conflict and social decay give way to something ancient and mysterious.

THEME 

The yetis represent a magical,  ancient part of ourselves, one we try to suppress, but that keeps resurfacing as a demand from our own nature.
