ZOOks is a contemporary fairytale about people and nature. A fairytale with kings, goodies, baddies and young heroes. The 13-year-old Robin lives in a world where nature is taboo. Plants are dirty, butterflies are dangerous and the forest is strictly forbidden. The reign of King Ferdinand and his Office for Nature Control (the BNC) keeps people and nature at a safe distance from each other. One day Robin's mother Marjolein disappears during a mission in the forest. Robin goes to the forest, looking for answers. She meets Wolf, an 'enfant sauvage'. He seems to know more.
