In the scorching heat of a Berlin summer day in 2017, I found myself captivated by the intricate mating rituals of beetles. With my camera in hand, I dedicated myself to capturing their every move, eventually transforming my footage into a short film. While some may question whether it was a productive use of my time, I believe that delving into the wonders of the natural world and sharing it with others was actually probably not a good use of my time. Enjoy.
