If you loved J.S. Bach: Fantasia in G minor, try Natural History Suite

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Jan Švankmajer, and they both carry the surreal mood tag, and they sit in Animation territory. If that's the register that drew you to J.S. Bach: Fantasia in G minor, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Natural History Suite is

Disney cartoons meet a biology textbook without the sugar. Eight animal groups get their own musical and visual treatment, each a stop-motion collage of bones, sketches, and live creatures dancing to genre-specific tunes. Švankmajer turns taxonomy into a darkly playful 1960s cabinet of curiosities.
