DESCRIPTION

A story about emotions and people who want to get closer to each other, but are not yet aware that they live in completely different realities. Animals is a puzzle fitting the taste of all cinephiles who love narrative labyrinths of David Lynch’s and Roman Polański’s films. Its heavy atmosphere makes the audience of the film directed by Greg Zgliński experience the story rather than follow it like is the case with typical narration. Even if the introduction, main part, and the ending were in the script, they switched places on screen. The same thing happened with the place of action and characters’ faces. Everything here approaches each other, sometimes blurring in one whole, so that it becomes only some fantasy in the characters’ minds…
