„A big family, millions of miles separated, bonded by a common destiny...“ Our solar system
Hi everybody, Corona time is Documentary time. I have watched a few movies of that genre in the last two and a half months. Over this way I will introduce you the best of this period. Starting with „The Planets“, what a beautiful, high class animated Docu this was. The kind of storyrelling wasn't something special.

Personally i think Wonders of the Universe is still his best work,…
