This short animated fable stars witches, cloaked riders and other Gothic characters, in a tale about the hungry natural world. Here the artist plays cat's cradle with ideas, especially the notion that one thing leads to another and that lives lead from one to another. Without words but featuring a witch's brew of sounds.

I reckon the trick to enjoying this might be to abandon any sort of rational appreciation of any story or structure. Just when you think it is starting to add up, it darts off on another seemingly abstract tangent that makes even less sense that the previous one. The partially coloured styles of animation mirror that feeling of confusion but on occasion give us just a snippet of a jigsaw puzzle that might well want to show us the effects of consequences - one thing on another. A sort of every action has an opposite reaction type of thing? The characters range from the more defined - like some witches, or the cat itself - to critters that looked like they belonged more in a "Moomins" cartoon and so it's probably best just to sit back and let this wash over you a few times.
