Synopsis

The creator of more than 200 short cinematic works, Jean Painleve captures the life of alien-seeming underwater fauna with both scientific purpose and childlike inquisitiveness. This anthology features 23 of Painleve's exotic, compelling, and magical works, as well as Yo La Tengo's 90-minute original score, The Sounds of Science, written in 2001 to accompany eight of Painleve's films. In French with English subtitles.

Beautiful images and inspiration for seeing and filming the art in nature. I also recommend the photographic books by Feininger if you like this kind of thing.
