JOHN AND THE MAGIC MUSIC MAN

Category: Edition 1978

Synopsis
Often in the imagination of the boys, music is a particular world close but unreachable, fascinating but remote. This film seeks to capture the imagination by touring the symphony orchestra and illustrating all the instruments it is made of. In order to better explain the shapes and sounds of the different instruments, a fantastic story is used, that is the meeting, during a dream, of a boy with some instruments that become almost human.
