"Night gives way once more. Nothing will stop what's now in motion, what hides in shadow, what surges forward, what flutters to towards the light. Here, where time is measured out in moments, and new lives emerge from darkness, the day begins like any other. Beyond anything we could imagine, and yet almost beneath our notice."
This was released in 1996 and I'm just now getting around to watching it. Would have been nice to see it on the big screen. But it's basically Discovery Channel stuff. Good for pausing and switching laundry loads. I think I waited so long cos I basically don't like bugs. I sent many prayers to the powers that be when I was a kid that I would become a boy and that all bugs would disappear from the planet. I was more than a little disappointed when I learned in science class that neither was likely to happen.
Anyway, it made me itchy, even after I changed the sheets (many scenes of ants doing crazy ant things.) But the snails grinding it out to opera really makes the whole thing worth watching.
