Here is an animated replay of the human comedy as amusing in its
perception as in the way it caricatures humanity's propensity to
resort to violence rather than to reason. The whole arena of
conflict is reduced to its simplest dimensions--cubes and balls
representing antagonists. Why they fight and what happens after the
battle is a parody of human nature. Film without words.

their environment, humans, the inventors, aren't.
