It’s the audio that really gets under the skin here, as we spend three minutes - perhaps it’s last - in the company of a fly. As it buzzes it’s way through a garden it inadvertently enters a home where is it is soon being subjected to the swattings of an irate human being. Will it survive? Truthfully, would we want it to? The detail on the outdoor foliage is impressive, and the editing of the sound as it flies, lands then has an altercation with a piano keyboard before flyng again makes this quite an affecting three minutes of creative artistry that, despite it’s subject, I really quite enjoyed.
