We have acted as a society should act. We have followed the rules. We do not mock or belittle people who are different. But it is not acceptable to come here and disturb the order and stir up a lot of shouting at a hot dog stall.
The Human Torch is a one-shot short film about traffic lights at night, where respectable people wait for the lights to change, even though the street is empty. The film is about the loss of a sense of security in an uncontrollably changing world.
