Everything has its own order in the forest. Each creature, tree and mushroom make sure that order is maintained. Until a human comes along, bringing his chaos and trash. Musaši Entertainment Company presents Fabula Sylvestris, a nonverbal puppet fairy tale about ingenuity, diligence and love of nature and home.
Almost everyone has somewhere to live. Home is where our loved ones are. Home is where we have our foundation, where we feel safe, where we can hide. Home is wherever we feel it – a city, district, village or landscape. The heroes of Fabula Sylvestris – Mr Hunk and Mr Smooth – are at home in the forest. They have their loved ones there, they can hide under the moss, and they can go hunting for mushrooms. And so they care about the forest, they feed the animals and pick up their droppings. But not everybody is so responsible. Not everyone cares about the shared home. And how would we feel if someone turned our room into a dump? When a trash fortress is found in the forest, there is no time to think. Mr Hunk and Mr Smooth have to find the architect behind it and stop him!
