Mallet/ Malj

Mallet/ Malj
Yugoslavia, 1977, 11’

Director and Scriptwriter: Aleksandar Ilić

In a futuristic, antiseptic food factory, workers select healthy chicks, while the rejects are carried along a conveyor belt until they are crushed by a mallet and dropped into a garbage bin. A single black chick appears among the yellow and is shoved toward the garbage bin. Before the mallet strikes, the gasping chick rebels.
