Indifferent to an army enraged by the invasion of his already conquered territory, this man competes with flies for scraps of food. It could have been an apocalyptic scenario in which only the insects and a few lucky humans survived, postponing their end to a future day. But no. On the other side of the plain, away from the plague of toxic fumes rising from the burning garbage, there are people like him, living seemingly normal lives, unaware that this kingdom of flies exists.
