Poland, short film, 10 min., 1988
A sleeping man suddenly splits into pieces. All his body parts live their own lives. When the alarm clock goes off in the morning they come back, but the man is surprised – one leg is missing. It wanted to be free and did not want to return to its master at all. The man tries to catch the leg, but it grows feathers and flies away like a bird. A grotesque story accompanied by classical music.
