*Juan Galiñanes introduces the film
Saying that sound is half of a film is a honest-to-God truth, but however, sound is usually not valued as it deserves; we are not aware of how much it matters, of everything that it makes us feel. That is not the case of Fantasia, in which the game is the opposite: images are at the service of music and not the other way round. In it, directors, screenwriters, editors, animators … are driven by each note and travel with them untethered, as far as music will take them. And it is in those places, with flowers, fishes, fairies, wizards, ostriches and demons, among many others, that they convey the scent, the colour, the rhythm, the taste and the feel of music.
