Acorn's Adventure - Pure Shore

Acorn’s Adventure

IN DEVELOPMENT

LOGLINE
Quido, an acorn character, is pressured by society to find the purpose of his life. But should he be the one to change?

SYNOPSIS
Quido, a character created from acorns, appears in Resinland – a village hidden in the forest ruled by children’s imagination. Everyone here has a pre-defined purpose, except Quido. As no one is accepted into the village without it, Quido is under pressure to decide what he wants to do with his life.

Suddenly, the vital healing source – resin – is stolen by strange robots and the last supplies are quickly running out. But there is no one in Resinland pre-defined as a hero, so who will be the one to save them? Under pressure to fit in, Quido lies about his pre-defined purpose. Although he does not know what a hero is, he sets off on an adventurous mission to save the village.

Quido’s journey of action-packed chase and humorous events leads him to save the village and to finally admit that he lied. Thanks to his good heart, he changes Resinland’s rules, allowing everyone to pursue their true passions instead of their assigned roles. You can be authentic and take time to figure things out.
