Every night, a father tells his son a bedtime story to help him fall asleep. Like a challenge, the child always choses the same book, a serious book with score sheets, photos of the Orchestra and drawings of animals – the book is “The Carnival of the Animals” by Camille Saint-Saens.
This book which seems a little austere, is transformed by the complicity of the father and his son, it becomes animated, it plays music : The Carnival of the Animals comes to life.
A story for the whole familly in live caption and animation.
