THINKFilm exposed!

iW's Eugene Herhandez has a link to Jamie Stuart's new short, "In Spring," a brief exploration of THINKFilm's New York offices. What do we learn?
- The walls of THINKFilm's office are painted bright orange and feature priceless lighting fixtures.
- They have a copy room where stacks of DVDs are copied for the Chinese.
- In Stuart's exclusive interview with Gunter Merkwurdigeliebe, THINKFilm Chairman and CEO, Gunther says, "The time of human beings comes like a flickering of light that will go very soon. It's not sustainable."
Update:
Someone doesn't get the joke. After the short began to disappear on several other blogs, Stuart finally took it down, replacing it with this messsage:
"In Spring" has been removed by its creator. There was no legal justification for the request of said removal. Simply a moral issue (not looking to get anybody fired...)
It is ironic, however, that a film made as an homage to several banned films, "Land Without Bread," in particular, is now being removed from official circulation.
For the time being...
