They don’t have much time. Four wayward beetles board a theatre, death is imminent, that’s how it is. Instead of a quiet departure, however, they experience their last minutes on a stage. Without obeying the laws of the theatre, they develop a revue from the world of metamorphosis with philosophical scenes, music, absurd thoughts and, of course, from their dreams, the connections to which cannot yet be known.

A wild farewell song, a show according to the rules of the beetles – full of noises and a certain nervous disturbance, in which the human species and its circling around itself, out of beetle eyes, are also made the subject of grotesquely funny stage moments.
