Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis is reworked into a story about a passing love affair between Gregor and Grete.

synopsis

Gregor and Grete accuse each other of a metamorphosis in which Gregor has turned into an antisocial crustacean and Grete has become a translucent deep-sea creature. What exactly happens is unclear. The animation evokes the emotions of two people who have lost the ability to communicate.
In To Insanity wordt Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis herwerkt tot een verhaal over een voorbijgaande liefdesaffaire. Gregor en Grete beschuldigen elkaar van een metamorfose. Gregor zou veranderd zijn in een asociaal schaaldier. Grete wordt ervan beschuldigd getransformeerd te zijn in een doorschijnend schaaldier. Wat er precies is gebeurd, blijft onduidelijk. De animatie roept de emoties op van twee mensen die niet meer kunnen communiceren.
