One day a disciple of the great sage decided to test his teacher. He caught a butterfly and thought, "My teacher knows everything, so I'm going to go to him and ask him, 'I have a butterfly in my hand, do you think it's alive or dead?'" If she says she's alive, I'll clench her fist and she'll die, if she says she's dead, I'll break my fist and she'll fly away.
- Teacher, I have a butterfly in my hand, do you think it's alive or dead?
- Everything is in your hands, the teacher replied. . .

Butterfly in the palm
Original retro horror, stylish, albeit budget b-movie. Here, as an atmospheric “archive” show of the 70s, a satirical deconstructive statement on the theme of American evening shows. There is literalism, vulgarization, opposition, ambivalence, fragmentation, a prioriism, discourse and psychologization of the entire television culture of the United States. The given is shown with scope and taste and a deep accurate formulation of illustrativity. In this retro - there is no place for screamers, monsters and physiological violence, here the atmosphere of alarm is important. With this, the authors got into the heart. The installation, the composition, the final point – all very well, as well as the old-fashioned visual series.
Great movie. I recommend to those who respect parables with a double bottom and meaning. 🤝
