Storyline

'"Weleer/Once" tells the the rise and fall of an entire cardboard society. It's about construction from scratch, nostalgia for 'village life' and the intrigues between villagers during a time of crisis. After a man wakes up in an entirely empty world, he soon finds a piece of cardboard. Gradually the man starts to build his cardboard village, looking for the ideal society. When more villagers start to appear, the empty world gets a civilized character. After days of hard labor the cardboard village finally is ready. The villagers gather and soon a big party is organized. Although most people are satisfied and enjoy their life in this new environment, you can still feel the darkness overshadowing the peaceful village... . When more and more economic problems rise, the existence of the village is at stake.
