The God (2003)
The film shows Shiva in a very traditional representation–in bronze and standing within a circle of bronze flames. Suddenly, a fly lands on Shiva’s arm–one of many arms to be exact. Slowly, the bronze statue comes alive and swats the fly–missing again and again and eventually smashing the bronze circle.
