Nest (1997)

"Fészek" ("Nest") is a sand animation made by Ferenc Cakó from Hungary, another country that endured Fascism, Communism, and finally a harsh transition to liberal economics which crippled many of its citizens. Cakó uses his medium to suggest different ideologies slipping into each other in an ever-moving mess of human interaction. One besuited man is surreptitiously replaced by a larger one, who in turn is squashed by a giant functionary too big for the screen, in front of whom microphones spring up in demagogic anticipation.
