A stone giant finds a human child in a world that has no use for humans anymore. What unfolds is not an epic about saving humanity, but a quiet chronicle of a father learning what it means to protect something smaller than himself. The animation moves like watercolor bleeding into paper, and every frame earns the weight of their journey together.
A golem who watches over the forest comes across a lone human girl named Somali. Humans are nearly extinct in this world, driven to the brink by the demons, spirits and other creatures that rule the land, and the few who remain are hunted as food. Moved by her enthusiasm, the golem takes her under his care, and the two set out to find her parents and bring her home. What unfolds is a gentle fantasy adventure with a slice-of-life feel, following their travels together as the guardian and the girl from a vanishing race grow into father and daughter. It's a story about family and the bond between two very different travelers.
