A man dressed in camouflage fatigues tills a patch of red-clay soil amidst a green patch of land. Throughout his work, he carries a strange object on his shoulder, which from a distance seems to be an amorphous rock riddled with holes. As the camera zooms in, however, it turns out that the holes are covered with small and scurrying insects: termites. The man, however, continues to carry the nest as if it were a precious object.
