Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })All These Creatures is a 2018 short film (13 minutes) from Australia, directed by Charles Williams.It centers on an Aboriginal family living in an unspecified location. The protagonists are Tempest, a teenage boy, and his father Mal. Mal is afflicted with an unspecified, but obviously quite serious, mental disorder. Formerly a loving husband and nurturing father, he begins having paranoid delusions, ranting loudly and incoherently, and sometimes exploding into violence. Meanwhile, the backyard of the family home gets infested with their cicadas, which in their numbers and their constant chirping are an obvious metaphor for Mal's creeping insanity. | |

Calling Parents by Their Name: In this instance it's Mal who tells his children to call him Mal instead of Dad. It's a symptom of his mental illness. | |

All These Creatures / int_c3c18143 | comment |
Hope Spot: After wandering around the streets shouting, and then disappearing for a while, Mal shows up at Tempest's school to pick him and his sister up, looking fit and relaxed. But as they drive in the car Mal's increasingly nonsensical babble about how all the other people around them aren't real shows that he's no better. | |

Feet-First Introduction | |
All These Creatures / int_e73f6217 | comment |
Feet-First Introduction: The film begins with a shot of Mal's feet as he wanders around the backyard, the shot also catching the end of the cricket bat that he's holding. The tone is appropriately ominous. | |

Ambiguous Disorder | |
All These Creatures / int_e8cfde67 | comment |
Ambiguous Disorder: It's not spelled out what exactly is wrong with Mal but it seems like some sort of schizophrenia, with the nonsensical shouting and the paranoid delusions. | |
