Uma sátira da animação Fantasia (1940). Bruno Bozzetto utiliza os mesmos recursos de Disney, animando peças musicais clássicas e ainda acrescentando uma mordaz crítica social em cada quadro. O filme é uma paródia de Fantasia da Disney, embora possivelmente seja mais um desafio para Fantasia do que o status de paródia implicaria. No contexto deste filme, "Allegro non Troppo" significa Not So Fast! ou Não tão rápido!, Uma interjeição que significa "desacelerar" ou "pense antes de agir" e refere-se à visão pessimista do filme sobre o progresso ocidental (em oposição ao otimismo original da Disney).

"The strangeness of this film is laced with carefully moulded apocalypses as the filmmaker explores a vision of life beyond death – the Elysian fields of Homer, Dante’s Purgatorio, de Chirico’s stitched plain. A moving single picture. Evolving the structure or script for the film involved a process of controlled hallucination, whereby I sat quietly without moving, looking at the background until the pieces began to move without my inventing things for them to do. I found that, given the chance, they really did have important business to attend to, and my job was to furnish them with the power of motion. I never deviated from this plan." —Canyon Cinema

A fresco mixing the satirical, the surreal and the fantastical to portray the social and political evils of today’s Korea. A gas mask-wearing serial killer is spreading terror. Four people are on his tail on election day: Miju – a wolf-girl who leads a sect of youths who are planning their mass suicide, Bosik – a traffic cop who’s convinced he is a super hero, Patrick – a US Marine on the brink of madness following the serial killer’s murder of his Korean girlfriend, and Ju Sanggeun, the favourite of the candidates for the mayoral seat of Seoul, who has received a disturbing death threat. The man behind the mask remains a mystery. The killer is everywhere or perhaps he is simply inside each of us. –Venice Film Festival
