Zoetrope shows this side of life, in which hope almost leaves; but still, the characters keep acting, actuated by obstinacy, foolishness, or just by the lack of other ideas.
Two robots - Primus and Decimus have to go through a labyrinth that is full of extraordinary objects. To find the right way or sometimes just to satisfy their curiosity, they examine and recover the stories of the objects. Thus, they face strange characters, pursuing their aims. Sometimes the pursuing is impetuous; sometimes it is painful and desperate. The robots gradually realize that their efforts are accompanied by some kind of hopelessness.—Sotir Gelev
