Script: Marcel Martin

Un étang paresseux sous le soleil de midi... Sous cette surface paisible, se poursuit une lutte acharnée, un recommencement perpétuel de la vie et de la mort. Là, naissent, vivent et s'entre-dévorent des milliers de petites bêtes : grèbes, maubèches, rats musqués, grenouilles, hérons, butors, foulques, canards, poules d'eau de même que d'innombrables insectes.
