The story follows a middle-aged man living in a peaceful village. One afternoon, Grandpa relaxes with milk and a cigarette while listening to his old radio. His calm is broken when the news announces a major development project that may bring progress but threaten the village’s natural beauty. The report triggers a vivid daydream: he imagines the hill behind his home, once full of rice fields and green trees, now covered with grand buildings. The scene turns unsettling as the scarecrow begins to move, symbolizing the villagers’ anger and fear of environmental destruction. Nature’s voices grow tense, reflecting the community’s warning. Grandpa wakes up frightened, realizing that the “tau-tau” guardians have long protected the hill. The film reflects the fragility of nature amid modernization and one man’s struggle to preserve his environmental heritage.
