Hako plot

The story is set in a quiet village somewhere in the future, where the new technology is perfectly integrated into the nostalgic environment. An old craftsman makes a box from the wood of the 'tired tree'. De Doos roams along the old railway, taking with him the memories of the people and the events of the village. The old man is concerned because he has not yet fulfilled the Box's wish. Life in the monotonous and peaceful village slowly changes after the death of the old man - the tree has fallen, the Box broken. But the grief of the Box brings new hope. What wish will now be fulfilled?
