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).
