Inspired by Rube Goldberg's overengineered contraptions, the film imagines the creation of red rubber gloves and the packaging of fish products by tiny hat-wearing creatures working like clockwork. Renshaw-Lewis emphasizes 'the mystery and absurdity behind how we get items that are so readily available to us'. The film builds to a climax that abstracts the visuals into shifting colours and outlines, offering an 'under the hood' perspective on the painstakingly manual process.
