Summary
We sit down at the table. This quiet ritual, which begins with breakfast, turns into a tense cycle with lunch and dinner. The sound of forks scraping against plates paints a grotesque portrait of insatiable appetites. Jan Švankmajer, drawing on the tactile power of animation, transforms the act of eating into a dark comedy. Objects come to life, and food begins to devour people.
