Sinopsis

At the opening of FIMFA Lx15 — International Festival of Puppetry and Animated Forms —, The Great War recreates World War I using models, tin soldiers, parsley, dirt, rusty nails and spectacular sound and special effects. In the images projected on a screen, the miniature battle fields turn into hyper‐realistic war scenes.
