Animated short film about a fertility ritual | "Salmon Men" (2020)

The salmon want to reproduce.
While the salmon men are swimming upstream in a testosterone-driven race, the
women at the source of the river indulge themselves in a fertility dance. But the roles
aren’t set as clearly as the men expect.
