About

An enterprising producer believes he has hit upon a winning concept: a program of original animated shorts set to classical music. Undeterred by warnings that this has already been done by an American named 'Prisney,' he rallies an orchestra of geriatric women, a bullish conductor, and an animator that he keeps locked in the dungeon. What could go wrong?

The Orchestra Master We're unemployed, then.
The Presenter Unemployed... until the next movie. I've already got an idea. A brand-new idea. We could do a love story.

Union of Animation and Classical Music
The Presenter Ladies and gentlemen, you are about to see an unforgettable show, a film destined to become immortal, as immortal as the music which will follow, and which will be interpreted through animation. Beginning with his childhood fantasies, the greatest ambition that burns and swells in the soul of every creative animator is to illustrate music, to give visual form and color to its notes. With this film, we have finally succeeded in achieving this union of animation and classical music, a union we are sure is destined to live on throughout the history of film. A new and original film that has even astonished us, the men responsible, the men who, quite modestly speaking, can be called its creators. A film in which – in which – A film in which you will see the music and listen to the drawings. You might call it a film of magic, a fantasia. Hello. Yes. Who's speaking? Who is this? What do you mean, who am I? Who is it you wish to speak to? Eh? ]? It's ]. Hello! Yes! What? You've already – Hello! Yes! What? You've already – Look, if this is some joke, I'm in no mood – No, but – No, but – there must be some misunderstanding. You're very ill-mannered... That's right, ill-mannered and a liar! Yes, I said you're a liar! A liar from California It's nothing. They're mad. Mad as hatters. They insist that our film – this is all so ridiculous –was already made by a certain fellow years ago. A certain someone by the name of Prisney or Grisney. Some American. In any case, before you go around opening your big mouth, see the film first!
