observation diary on escaped animals

In anarchy after the outbreak of the Epsilon V epidemic, animals in human forms are created during the development of vaccines. Yoo Mi Ra, a former soldier, and Gong Soo Chul, who claims to be an animal communicator, start to trace the family who escaped from the laboratory. The film attempts to examine what ‘desire’ is, by observing humans, who believe that they can acquire wealth by developing a vaccine via unethical clinical trials, and animals in human forms.
