Mushroom picking is actually a peaceful activity – but hardly anyone thinks about how the mushrooms feel about it. A young mushroom discovers the beauty of nature with curiosity. His neighbor, an old, grumpy toadstool, shows little joy in company or nature. Undeterred, the young mushroom seeks closeness – until a sentence from the old man changes everything: "They'll eat you!" Before he even understands what that means, the mushroom is torn from the ground and finds himself in a nightmare: knives, pots, fire – a kitchen full of dead mushrooms. Desperately fighting for survival, he manages to escape and return to the clearing. The old fly agaric can hardly believe that the little one has made it. For the first time in a long time, his heart warms.
