In a society of ostriches who go about daily life with their heads buried in the ground, a scientist's research suggesting the habit isn't instinctive at all threatens everything they take for granted.

A sharp, playful satire that turns the 'head in the sand' cliché into a portrait of willful blindness.

Ostriches carry on their daily activities burying their heads, believing It’s an Instinctive behavior. However, one day a research by phylogeneticist Dr. Kays proves otherwise.
