The
Human Condition
This
short clip from the film 'Animals Are Beautiful People' metaphorically
illustrates quite
concisely
how mankind (personified by the baboon) is a victim
of its own stupidity and greed.
The
baboon is trapped by its unwillingness to let go of the melon seeds
in pretty much the same way that mankind is unwilling to let go of
its dependence on consumerism.
