Why in Database: One of the characters in the film is a small crook who deceives others in various ways – he gives a turtle as a gift to the heroine who owns the building he lives in and owes a rent to. He says it’s a rare “mushroom turtle” that grows incredibly fast (even multiplies his size), if it is fed properly. He offers access to a diet, of course, in exchange for forgiveness of debt. We see “this” turtle, in fact various turtles “pretending” to be the same turtle in several scenes, and in one scene you can see a box in his room where he keeps turtles of different sizes.
