    If one could put a camera on a fly and follow it, what would you see. Here, of course, is an effort to create the fly's milieu so the animators can work around it. For a three minute film, it must have taken incredible discipline to put the fly in places that become interesting. This is remarkable, considering it is a 1980 feature.
