A journalist, who, by the will of fate, finds himself in a strange village in the middle of the forest, has the chance to fulfill his lifelong dream - to collect a collection of original fairy tales that are original and not combed by writers. Gloomy stories await him about mermaids, dryads and other creatures that live in the thicket and near people - which in no case should be believed. However, soon not only he begins the hunt for fairy tales, but the fairy tales themselves are after him.
