action
The film takes place exclusively on a large noble property with an outdoor pool. The area looks as if the residents had fled it. Frogs and toads have settled on the seemingly overgrown property and are following their needs: one toad chases another frog that is ready to mate across the house, another frog feeds on the supplies in the kitchen, a third tries to catch a butterfly. During his night chase, he activates the building services - the lights come on, music starts playing and the filter systems and the fountain in the pool resume work and release the owner's corpse.
Awards
The film has received numerous awards since it first appeared. Plus, it has been presented at over 180 festivals around the world.
