Microcosmos is a feature length documentary examining the daily lives of the various insects that inhabit a French meadow. This film features some stunning photography that is able to capture the lives of a range of insects and arachnids. Set over a twenty four hour period, the movie shows the various creatures in their natural habitats carrying on with their daily lives. As the day progresses, the viewer witnesses the morning dew clearing, the devastation of a sudden rain shower and the different creatures that emerge after the sun goes down. Unlike a traditional nature documentary, this film has no narrator describing the on-screen action, instead matching the visuals to a musical score.
