Outline

A guide named Nashi narrates the audience journey in an uncanny forest. What are the creatures that live there, living beings or robots? Nashi states that everything is animated, and that even the things we consider synthetic and artificial are as sacred as plants and stones. She criticizes nature forits inability to develop and praises technology for its flexibility and proclaims that nature should adapt to technology in order to survive.
