Humorous documentary about people and animals in the Amsterdam Artis Zoo, shot with a hidden camera. Who is actually looking at whom? From the animals' standpoint, Haanstra filmed the reactions of the public and vice versa. By cross-editing the images, the film beautifully compares the behaviour of man and animal.
