“Tall, mysteriously lit blocks of flats, a volcano, miscellaneous fish-like entities swimming across the screen.
\nA science fiction world? No, simple a d\u00e9cor in an aquarium, where household objects in the skies are pushed about by a woman disguised as a cat, who \u2013 when she eventually appears in frame \u2013 is standing angling in a box.
\nBy simply, almost primitive means, a world is evoked which temporarily deceives the viewer, but which is revealed at the end as a sophisticated joke.
\nThe fact that the \u201ccat\u201d has perpetrated the joke is not disguised: her tail is hanging in the water when she reveals herself to the viewer.
\nThe music, a popular variant of the time-honoured-tango, emphasises once again satirical nature of the tape.” RP

In the depths of the blue ocean lies the sunken city of Atlantis, inhabited by ancient fish that resemble pliers, whisks and coffee spoons.
\nAnd here begins the journey caused by a fish obsessed cat, which at the time is the connection between the ocean dwelling creatures and the flying absurdities of the vast outer space.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
