The Crabe-Phare is a legendary crustacean. He captures the lost sailors' boats to add them to his collection. But the crab is getting old, and it is getting too difficult for him to build his collection… We follow the Lighthouse Crab in his joyful solitude and passion for collecting, and then in his dismay at the invasion and destruction of his habitat when a city is built on his back, a theme that particularly resonates today. After a few words in English in its opening seconds, the film is without dialogue.
