15 years of research. 2 years of equipment design. 3 years of filming. 1 film to restore your wonder.
A feature documentary covering a day in the life of the bug universe, Microcosmos is an entertaining, visually stunning treat.
Microcosmos chronicles one full day in the lives of the many insects living in a French meadow. Extraordinary technology brings us up-close to these tiny creatures, presenting them as larger-than-life characters whose quirks, pastimes and relationships are never less than riveting.
A pair of stag beetles duel like titans... a magnificent army of worker ants race to stock their larder while avoiding a predatory pheasant... while nearby a caterpillar transforms into a butterfly in spectacular fashion. With its tiny cast of thousands, Microcosmos leaves no doubt that 'Mother Nature remains the greatest special effects wizard of all' (New York Times).
Narrated by Kristin Scott Thomas (The English Patient). Duration: 77 minutes.
