A spider is just trying to go about it's sticky business in the undergrowth but nothing is going to plan. It's web is completely useless at catching flies, the other insects just giggle at it and it can't even get a decent night's sleep for the noise of the cicadas and the caterpillar taking off it's shoes - one at time. Indeed this is not a very menacing beastie at all and the chances of it ever getting a meal of any sort are highly dubious! Until - well let's just say it has a stroke of genius, or does it? Might romance suppress it's appetite for a while? It reminded me a little of one of the early 1970s editions of "Dr. Who" replete with (annoyingly) synthesised soundtrack and plastic foliage but it's quite creatively crafted as the poor creature does exemplify the theory of if at first you don't succeed. It's too long and just a little repetitive but has shades of a silent film to it that I quite enjoyed and the conclusion takes quite a poignant pop at human indifference to nature quite effectively.
