Presented by L'Arbre à Vache
A deliveryman, BOB, is waiting in front of the door with two boxes. And this is the beginning of the end...
Who would order a withered plant in the last phase of dehydration, a pre-war alarm clock or an already bitten apple?
And how would the delivery man react when he realized he had been stood up in front of everyone?
What if he then decided to have fun with the audience with the help of his old tape recorder?
The scenery is minimalist: it all takes place in front of a door. A delivery man, BOB, is waiting in front of the door with two boxes. And this is the beginning of the end: engaging in methodical looting, BOB then becomes – with more or less success - a conjurer, a mime, an acrobat, a leek torturer, and a blade swallower.
