The pets stay at home, helpless and alone. Their attempts to find some food in empty bowls and the waste end in failure. Meanwhile, the flat becomes infested by a swarm of flies and filled with odour of the decomposing corpse. Slowly, as time passes, the closed, claustrophobic space transforms into a battlefield. For one of the dogs the corpse of the owner becomes a source of food and a chance for survival. For the second one the corpse remains a sanctity, a relic of its formerly loving owner.

    An alarm clock wakes a man who washes his face, has breakfast, drives his car to work, spins records, returns home, and takes his pills. It’s a world of circles – often seen from above: an espresso cup, a stairwell, the pills, and the records spinning. At the dance where the music plays, the rhythms evoke images of a butcher slicing head cheese, gears driving other wheels and levers, a combine churning out bales of hay, a butcher cutting chunks of meat for a stew, and boxers punching. The circle of music and life
