Irish Film Institute -Microcosmos

Microcosmos

This award-winning documentary takes us into the teeming and spectacular world of insect and floral life. Exquisite micro-cinematography brings us right to the underworld of a Provençal meadow where we can see dewdrops evaporate, bees gather pollen and a butterfly struggle from its chrysalis. The everyday insects that are the stars of the film look so intricate and bizarre that the made-up monsters of science-fiction seem ordinary in comparison. (France/Switzerland /Italy, 1996. Colour. Dolby digital stereo. 75 mins.)
