One man’s breath is another man’s death? For the taxidermist preparing a fox in this animation, it threatens to become a long night.
Outside, there is a thunderstorm. Inside, a taxidermist prepares a fox. Animal heads, skulls and stuffed animals fill the room. He has an almost exhaustive collection of wild animals; only one plinth is vacant. But when he gets weaving with his latest addition, strange things happen. The doorbell rings, but there is nobody on the doorstep. The vengeful spirits of the animals he killed rise in revolt, in this short clay animation.
