Quido, a boy made of acorns, appears in Resinland, a village hidden deep in the forest, created and ruled by children’s imaginations. Everyone in Resinland seems to have a predefined purpose, except for Quido. And as he quickly finds out, no one can be part of the village without a reason for being there.
Suddenly, at this same moment, the village’s vital resource, resin, comes under attack from an unknown ring of thieves. No one knows who is behind the heists, and before long the last reserves of resin are running out, threatening Resinland‘s survival. Under pressure to find his place and fit in, Quido lies to everyone about his pre-defined purpose: he declares himself the hero, and sets off on an epic mission to save the village. The only thing is, he doesn’t have any idea what a hero is, or what they do.
