synopsis:
Taboo!
Down in the wadi, in a wooden box, as the bedouins told, is a dangerous animal.
Superstition, the tourist says: we must catch it!
Oh no, the bedouins cry: dangerous!
If you are so afraid about it, why don´t you take a handgranate?
And fate takes its way...

one line:
An enlightened cosmopolitan ends up in a wooden box in the sahara!
