Description:

Along the coast of Brittany, we observe acera, tiny, two-inch ball-shaped mollusks living in the mud. When in the water, they move with a swirling motion, their hood spreading out like a skirt. They spin and mate, secreting eggs. Acera are hermaphrodites, capable of mating with multiple partners and forming chains with others to do so simultaneously. The eggs hatch, restarting the life cycle. The film features musical accompaniment as we witness this process.
