The storyteller wanders in the forest and encounters sculpture like foam animals that archers have used for target practice. The encounter evolves into a collage journey to the mutual history of humanity and animality, embracing issues about animal representation, where mental asylums – public attractions in an early stage – equate with zoos and American industrial slaughterhouses, which were common tourist attractions until the 1950s.
