Natural History Suite

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.
