Summary:
In an unknown rural land, a possum-like creature lives peacefully with nature surrounding him, when suddenly a city appears, and nature dies away. After that, this creature starts living in the city, taking care of a plant that he got before the city took its life away. As days went by, both the plant and the creature starts to get weak, probably because of the polluted air. The plant had released a sort of white substance which grows and change its form to a jellyfish.
At the end:
The creatures get sucked into the jellyfish that grew big. The jellyfish generally symbolize protection, as well as caution. Probably, the creature did live and got protection from the world that had air pollution. However, it also tells the audience that humans must be cautious and start initiating programs to go against the problem of pollution.
Theme(Creator's Point):
First of all, the definition of the word varmint is a troublesome wild animal or a mischievous person. I immediately thought after knowing this fact that the creature represented in the beginning is not symbolizing the "varmints," something else is. In my opinion, the varmint is us, the audience. The humans. The director probably wanted to show the audience how much corruption the urban society has brought upon nature.
