Pukkulapottas and Hours in the Forest
プックラポッタと森の時間
Synopsis
During lockdown, a man discovers and films 15-cm-tall fairy-like beings, then loses sight of them as normal life resumes.
This account summarizes what I experienced between spring and summer of that special year when all human and material activities came to a standstill. I had retreated to my highland forest lodging away from the city, and while I was pent up there avoiding human contact, I chanced upon evidence of mysterious creatures in my yard. So I set up a surveillance camera, which to my surprise captured images of miniature humanlike beings about 15 centimeters tall. I named them "Pukkulapottas" and followed their activities daily with my camera, but as spring turned to summer and people began moving about again, I lost my ability to see them. This experience has prompted me to ask the question whether all the truths in this world are confined to what our eyes can see. (Source: Official Site)
