Balancing on the borders of the real and the unreal the film strives to express the monotony of this world, its illusory character, and emphasize the lack of spirituality in everyday routine.

The protagonist of the film is the Bat living in an old mill and fighting rats and crows. It’s the war fought by disproportioned forces, where the battle is won by cleverness, skill and cunning. Somewhere outside the mill another war is fought.

There is only one animal living in the zoo - the giraffe. No one but the little girl goes to see her. To attract visitors, the director of the zoo orders an advertising giraffe. But then it turns out that people are only fascinated by artificial giraffes, they are not interested in a living animal. The general "giraffe boom" begins. The film ridicules the fascination with "mass culture" not from the real and the living, but from the imitation and the artificial.
