Synopsis
A naked man stands on a stool to feed his fish as credits roll. We are told, “Consurgo: To rise, to lift oneself.”
The man then gets on the train and walks through the busy urban station. It all looks pretty normal. He stops to watch a man doing a puppet show. We see that our guy runs a shoeshine stand, and surprisingly enough, that’s the creepy part…
Commentary
Service workers are weird people, amiright? Some people take their jobs way too seriously. Everyone knows you shouldn’t bring your work home with you.
The man did, in fact, “lift himself up.”
The story really made no sense until the final shot, and then it all came together really nicely. Well done!
