It’s a long time ago, yet not so far back a date that it is completely erased from human memory. In that period of time, all species on earth, including human beings, animals, plants,.. could be switched into each other’s bodies and their language swapped too. Sometimes they were human, in the other times human became plants, insect and vice versa. It seemed that there would be no difference; all spoke the same language.
In "Dance of the insects”, the camera follows the insects moving against the background of a TV, screening an evening news program. We can see a meeting in which its characters are overlapping and invading each other, distorted appearances emerging with blurry scenes. All are ambiguous, peculiar, and, even though seemingly opposed, they are still related to each other.
