The film consists of four miniatures, an allegory of power. 1. Fingers argue with each other. But they turn into a mighty fist that crushes their annoying little man. 2. A man crawls through the desert, dying of thirst. The hand in the lace glove doesn't even notice it. 3. The shadow on the wall represents a deer. The shadow falls from the skeleton. 4. A person is not afraid of a bullet, but shrinks in front of a swinging finger.
