2011 | Fiction | 5 min. | Russia
A parody short feature film. Documentarians shoot a nature film in a dense forest. The narrator, a lively girl holding a glamorous pink mic, histrionically describes various wild animals: horses, then flying squirrels, then bird spiders. In between the takes the girl smokes and cynically throws away a smouldering cigarette butt, risking a forest fire. Eventually she gets caught in a bird spider's web, and the spider drags his victim away. Her colleagues show absolute indifference to her fate. "Cut!" the cameraman says, quickly packs his things and goes away with his assistant.
