Forest elves Bertík and Josefka live in a deep forest. They take care of the forest, Josefka makes hats for sassy mushrooms and Bertík puts out and lights up night-time mushroom lamps. But one day, Bertík's lamps start to go missing... This charming story for children, which was in production for seven years, builds on the poetics of Czech forests and the Czech puppet-film tradition. (Anifilm)
