This video is a report on the mysterious creatures that ""I"" found in that year when the flow of people and goods stopped all over the world.
In the spring of that year, when people around the world were forced to stay at home, ""I"" also stopped commuting to the city and spent every day at home.
One day, ""I"" discover traces of a mysterious creature in the garden.
When I set up a surveillance camera and looked it up, it turned out to be a dwarf about 15 cm tall.
""I"" named this creature ""Pukkulapottas"" and devoted myself to its search.
However, as the world gradually regains its momentum, Pukkulapottas disappears from my eyes.
Is what you see with your eyes really the truth?
""I"" thinks through Pukkulapottas.
