What does a butterfly's wing look like when enlarged two million times? Or the skin of one's hand? What fantastic landscape is hidden inside a crab's shell or a steel gear? For the first time, SHAPES OF THE INVISIBLE uses animation techniques to explore all the scales of "reality", zooming down to the macromolecular structures and showing the atoms all of us are made of. Filmed with the help of electronic microscopes and high-definition cameras, these pictures reveal that there's more, much more, than meets the human eye.
