Another abstract shortfilm by the filmmakers david koehne & kosei takasaki that was selected among the 18 competiting movies for the Galao Short Film Festival Berlin.

The music was composed and performed by friedrich kleinknecht, a former member of the bavarian state opera munich (germany). Inspired by the german word for spoon -”loeffel”- he created in an late night session a simple but dynamic musical theme for the movie.
