Synopsis
A science-fiction film which is an allegory about the suicidal character of war waged by militant factions. A military scientist originally intends to breed perfect robots: crabs, based on the principle that "the strongest survive," which would live on metal, and which would be an ideal diversionary weapon. The scientist finds his plans turned against him, but it is too late to change them.
