This experimental film, hand-scraped and painted on the film strip, is a unique and expressive vision of a sick society, expressed by the unnatural existence in a labyrinth. The subconsciousness reflects the attack of bureaucrats on the world of the creative and natural Woodpeckerman, on his surroundings and his universe – a bird cage. In the end the image of the human existence is presented in the form of a reversed pyramid.
