In the small mountain village of Corund in Transylvania, a rare mushroom craft has been passed down through generations. The local residents use a leather-like material processed from tinder fungus to create handmade items. The amadou tradition is at risk of disappearing, and valuable expertise is in danger of being lost as the aging artisans pass away.

The documentary centers around the story of Mr. Imre, one of the oldest amadou craftsmen in the village highlighting how the survival of the amadou craft tradition is contingent on a small group of individuals.
