猎人、兽医和护士围绕手术台交谈，同时给一头野猪做手术。又一个伤口被缝合，但这一次发生在一种边缘状态，处在不同护理观念的交汇处。野生动物的拯救和猎人在一个生态系统中并置，这个生态系统中自然被人力资本制造、收获和利用。在这个框架中，野猪拉斯普京被囚禁在观念的碰撞之处：它被好奇的手从森林中偷走时还是一只小猪仔，后来被当地的野生动物救援中心照顾；现在拉斯普京被认为太野蛮，不能加入家庭环境，而又因为与人类接触太多而无法在森林中重获自由。尽管自然/文化的分界线得以体现，荒野却是人类建筑的阴影。这部影片是对保护行为的感性探索，看待这些行为如何构建基础设施，使得在皮亚琴察周围的平原上的野生动植物远离人类的生活环境。这些动荡土地的声音景观被置于与人类、非人类行动者和控制技术的对话中。 A wild life rescue treats boar and deer at the edge of a natural reserve alongside the Trebbia river, northern italy.
