Hoppá
Sixty years old, married. All their lives they have waited for their fortunes to change for the better, and now they are crows, so they make wild and foolish plans. The woman follows her imagination, fleeing reality, the man wants to understand it. Both attempts lead to failure. It's a tragicomic chase, but because they love each other, like Philemon and Baucis - their mythological ancestors - the promise of a happy ending is also glimpsed: because they have made the gods laugh, they too may survive the "Flood".
