This article is an investigation into how short film ideas are conceived. It examines Ant Plant as a case study of inspiration based in bio-art, the Australian bushfires of 2020 and critical plant studies.

A young woman hears the call and sets off on an arduous journey to deliver the key to a conserved plant kingdom – symbiotic Ant Plant.1
