Description:
Open on a bottle of Absolut Vodka. Gradually the bottle begins to break and disassemble, but in a very clean, orderly deliberate way. First, certain letters from the label pop off followed by remaining pieces of the label and pieces of glass. A more rapid expansion continues until the liquid vodka is beautifully suspended at the center of the bottle. All pieces suspend for a moment in their dissected state and the camera pans around the bottle to show all angles. All the pieces are quickly sucked back into place, forming a perfectly shaped Absolut bottle.

its really magnificent..but i have a small maybe right maybe wrong comment
Does Absolute Vodka come filled till the top of the bottle...?
coz the liquid flow is taking the whole bottle shape
and what i liked the most is the diagonal bump at the side sides of each peice of the shattered glass, its like brushed or something
5 stars
