The bug's Life

-
The bug started its journey for food. Into the Dark. It's been a month since it has eaten. He is the head of the family. He should protect his family from starving and death. The bug builds up its guts to step out of its family town, to find food. From dark towards light. 

Many thoughts run by... "What if I get accidentally killed?". "No, it wouldn't happen.. ". " Iam not a coward.. like others.. I am fast enough to escape... ". " What if I get caught while eating... ?".. "I would vanish into the dark....".

"It's night, I can sense the smell of the food". "It is from the creature.. before me.. ". It seems it hasn't noticed me..". "It is focused on light coming from a object in his hand.". 

The bug decides to take a step further. Nearing the food. He sees his peers consuming food from the creature. He moves slowly. He remembers the last time he tried to consume it's meal. He was made to faint by a poisoned air. He still builds confidence and nears.

Benet is in a long holiday. He is tired of routines. He and his family previously lived in a house which was infected with bedbugs. This is their new house. He lost his sentimental house and his friends because of this creature. 

It's more than one year since the house was infected with bugs. They had no choice of vacating the house.

Benet in this new house, was careful to avoid the infection of bugs. But after several months, the bugs somehow made it to their house.

Benet is on his bed. Bored of the normalised world. Swiping through media. Benet suddenly feels a pain on his hand. He sees a bug.. he kills it with disgust. He also sees more bugs near him. He kills them all.. he kills every bugs he sees. Even that are not hurting him.. 

He sees ants crawling by. He kills them too.. 

He killed it because no police will arrest one for killing insects. Because they all hurt humans. And there are no proofs to stand by them. 

If man was less powerful than insects, he would build containments for them to protect him.

Is this world only for humans ?. Is the powerful that should survive. Survival of the fittest. Yes it suits to animals. Not for Humane people. 

Our highest achievement as humans would be to be humane to other creatures unless they hurt you. 

If humans make mistakes, there are people to punish and give an another chance. But for insects, if they are caught mistaking they should have to end their lives. 

Where there is life, there is hope. Let's hope for Humanity in Humans.

Why watch Anora.?

It sets the mood at the first frame. The film showcases the life of a bar dancer, it shows a group of dancers who are performing the dance, this alone gives the audience time to decide the flavour of the film and decide to stop or continue. It hides nothing. It shows the audience what is considered private moments, we usually see these on the middle or second half of a film, meaning it explores the life of common people. Here they explore life of someone who does this for money, so there is no emotional arc required for this to happen. When physical relationship transcends to emotional relationship, love, the plot becomes exciting. But before power and money, can truth withstand is a testament for love. Is love real? It speaks on how a man comes into Anora's life who would see her beyond her physicality. But what if this is unreal that does not agree on money but on words and promises, commitment. Here it resembles real life scenario, but tweaked, a physical first and a developing ...
