The Grand Duke is the head of the statistical bureau responsible for monitoring glowworms. He lives in the hollow of a tree that must be destroyed to please the Governor-Bear. The Grand Duke reports the danger, and the wild animals sense an ecological disaster. The Grand Duke receives a new cavity as a gift from the Governor-Bear.

The problematic of the film underlines the contrast between real and virtual factors.
