Mario Mariotti is a conceptual artist who transforms his hands into odd, fantastic creatures. In this original and surprising short film, with a little tempera paint and a few tiny props, Mariotti transforms his hands into curious creatures. Two hands bcome a tuxedoed symphony. The conductor leads his harpist, cellist, horn players and choir through a beautiful musical score until a discordant note discombobulates the musicians, resulting in an unexpected finale.
