  • "Combining animation with liveaction, this film shows the camera pulling back from a view of a boy and his dog in a rowboat, and, zooming ever backward, the viewer is taken into outer space, past the moon, beyond the galaxy. Suddenly the motion reverses itself, and the view zooms back to the boy, past the skin and into the world of cells, molecules, electrons and atoms."

  • "Film d'animation inspiré du livre de Kees Boeke: "Cosmic view", et explorant l'infiniment grand et l'infiniment petit. Par un effet de "zoom", depuis l'image d'un garçon sur une rivière, la caméra entreprend un voyage jusqu'aux confins imaginables de l'univers, revient vers le garçon et s'introduit, par le sang de celui-ci, jusqu'aux limites connues de l'infiniment petit."
  • "This film probes the infinite magnitude of space, and its reverse, the ultimate minuteness of matter. Animation art and animation camera achieve this journey to the farthest conceivable point of the universe and then into the tiniest particle of existence--an atom of a living human cell--with a freshness and clarity that would seem impossible with other means of exposition. Film without words."

  • "The zoom, a rapid focus from one point to another, goes from a boy fishing on a river to the most distant point of the universe, then back again and into final infinity--the atom of one living cell within the boy. This non-verbal film leaves the viewer with a vivid awareness of the immeasurable grandeur of space and minuteness of matter."@en
