Synopsis

Furry lives in a glade surrounded by dark woods with his animal friends. Their only food are seeds that turn into glowing fruit when they touch the ground. But the seeds are rare and the animals are afraid to leave the glade and venture into the woods to look for food. Instead, they wait until it falls from the sky. Furry doesn’t want to wait. The wood arouses his curiosity and he wants to know what hides in there.
