A seductive mix of natural history and sci-fi, this very early function by Karel Zeman follows four school children on a stunning expedition back with time, where they lay eyes on landscapes and creatures that have actually time out of mind disappeared from the earth. Hewing carefully to the scientific knowledge of its age, Journey to the Start of Time brings its primitive beasts to life through a number of cutting-edge methods-- including stop-motion, puppetry, and also life-size versions-- creating an environment of pure wonderment.
