Loom (2010)

An experimental short from Oskar Fischinger

Propped upon the tail-end of a match, a housefly performs astonishing feats, alternately juggling a series of objects - a blade of grass, a cork, a miniature dumbbell… Most extraordinary of all is the sequence in which the fly spins a ball twice its own size, while a second fly perches on top. In the final sequence, the fly repeats some of its earlier tricks while apparently seated on a tiny chair.

Metaphor about art, about time, or how art uses the artist's life in his quest to create his work, in which he was pouring his talent, his vigor, and the best years of his life.
