Abstract:
Based on an actual scientific theory, this beautifully composed film with computer generated graphics accompanied by the music of Liquid Mind, tells a poignant story about microbes being blasted by asteroid collisions into outer space to become the seeds of life forms throughout the universe. Told from the personal perspective of one of the microbes, we follow him on his journey through space and time to another planet. He wonders about his friends and receives a message that some of them have become horses. Sad and alone, the microbe decides to change things by jumping into a volcano. He hopes to find his way home. The volcano hurls him into space and he dreams of being a magnificent flying creature. When the microbe awakens, he finds himself hurling towards a distant planet. He sees the planet being transformed by the arrival of him and his friends and hopes they, now in the form of horses, will remember him.
