It is kind of like a drug. What at first seems to be weak and trivial is capable of expanding and growing into a serious problem that can appear to be absolutely incomprehensible and absurd to those who have never experienced anything like it. “Too many cooks spoil the broth.”

The film’s main theme is obsession. An obsession with love, with art, with originality, with copying, with success, with money and…with oneself. Sooner or later every obsession leads us to ruin if we lose our rational upper hand over it, if we let ourselves be dragged down by it. But it is only when being dragged down, in spite of all the cuts and bruises, that we find a unique DELIGHT, if only for a few short moments – and what else is life really about?
