In four corners of the globe, in each of the four seasons, four outstanding violinists guide us on an extraordinary journey through their four distinct homelands. From the springtime blossoms of Japan, into the blistering heat and thunderstorms of an Australian summer; from a joyful autumn in New York, to the unforgiving cold and human warmth of a Finnish winter. The resonant and much-loved music of Antonio Vivaldi's The Four Seasons and the timeless stories they tell, form the backbone to this bold and engaging celebration of friendship, homeland and the cycles of life.

The Radio France philarmonic orchestra plays the two recurring themes in "Barry Lyndon". A bewitching travel into music-loving Kubrick's universe.

Animation for adults, consisting of three short stories: "The Most Beautiful" - about the female beauty of the past and the present, "Sweet Life" - about the contradiction between reality and the dreams of women, "The Deck" - about which place occupies a man in a woman's life.

A miniature film set to classical music. The film was made using combined animation techniques and was inspired by Antonio Vivaldi's "Winter" from "The Four Seasons." It tells the story of the most important periods in a person's life. The image combines elements of winter landscapes associated with old age. The story of human biological existence is a pretext for philosophical reflections on transience and the meaning of life.

A film miniature set to classical music. The theme of the musical piece serves as a pretext for an allegorical tale about the conception of life and human maturation. A colorful butterfly flies out of the pupil of an eye and merges with a man's face. Another butterfly lands on an orchid flower, merges with it, and then turns out to be a woman's face. The butterfly-shaped faces merge with each other. After a moment, the camera follows a tiny seed rushing deep into matter. The seed grows dynamically and transforms into a human embryo. From this moment on, the images on the blocks – puzzles – change very quickly: they show life from the birth of a child, through taking its first steps and discovering the world, to reaching full maturity.

A film miniature set to music from Antonio Vivaldi's concert The Four Seasons. The seasons are linked in film impressions to periods in human life. The film refers directly to the theme of autumn in relation to man and his "autumn" season of life. During this period, despite a certain stability, people try to be active and creative. To this end, they draw on their wealth of experience and mature reflections. However, memories increasingly creep into their daily routine of intense work. They want to capture the color and mood of these memories and preserve them in their minds through associations with music.

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?
