The film is narrative-free. Both the sound effects and the images, accompanied by multilingual subtitles and changing like a kaleidoscope, evoke in the viewer's imagination a shooting range where the targets resemble human silhouettes. Lively folk melodies juxtaposed with the sounds of gunshots create a contrast and become a means of expression. The shooters' skills lead to the elimination of their opponents. The funfair comes to an end, traces are covered up, and the ground is leveled. From under layers of accumulated earth (history), the previously seen targets emerge to the surface. They take on the shape of human silhouettes and come to life with color. This image is accompanied by a musical memento—a wail full of regret. Both the image and the music that accompanies the film contain many symbols, so any attempt at an unambiguous interpretation would be a simplification of its reception.
