Synopsis: It is the beginning of time. We see beings fly and soar in the air and crawl and tumble on the ground. They are not animals, but humans. Then, as their dance and the mysterious music continues, they transform into bears. Then the bears transform into dragons. Who has evolved from whom? A different view of who was first and phylogeny -- the development of the species.
The PlaceThe universe.
The TimeThe beginning.
