Commentary on the film: Fiddle-de-dee

Fiddle-de-dee continues Norman McLaren's research into animation painted directly on film. Ripples and shimmers of vivid color dance freely to the sound of a violin tune, in a work with no characters or story that invites children to experience music through their eyes.
