Ministry Messiah 
Short animated film  2005
One day I woke up from my deepest dream ..
.... my dream was reality.
So, I'm in strange house.
Rooms have no windows, no doors - like in prison.
Not even walls, no ceilings, no floors - like in field.
There is nowhere to run and nowhere to hide ....
all around premenstrual silence
... just sky is getting closer ...
