<\/p>

<\/p>\n

A comic animated story for children about finding balance between modernity and tradition, technology and nature. A tech-savvy family ends up lost in a Baltic forest when their house runs away. To return, they must reconnect with nature and realise that technology has limits \u2013 it cannot replace human connection. Yet, there are moments when technology is indispensable. This story is about finding harmony, not taking sides, between the two worlds.<\/p>\n
