Allegro non troppo, film insolito e geniale, e’ una fantasia musicale di animazione dove famosi brani di Debussy, Dvorak, Ravel, Sibelius, Vivaldi e Stravisnky hanno ispirato il grande regista Bruno Bozzetto a creare storie e personaggi con disegni animati. Costato 3 anni di lavoro, è il 3° lungometraggio del regista milanese e la sua opera più matura dove si coniugano con ironia, invenzione grafica, vena narrativa e riflessione morale.

Allegro non Troppo is a feature film made up by stories, in which famous classical musical pieces are visualized by means of a modern, ironical and highly qualified animation. Debussy's "Prèlude à l'après-midi d'un faune", Dvorak's "Slavonic Dance N.7", Ravel's "Bolero", Sibelius "Valse Triste", Vivaldi's "Concerto in C-Dur", Stravinsky's "The Firebird" are the six musical pieces which have inspired stories and animated characters. The stories are presented and connected by a live-action story, in which hilarity results from the same comical mechanisms used in usual cartoons, only in this case applied to human characters and situations. This film technically structured like Walt Disney's famous "Fantasia", is prominent for the original way in which it deals with current social themes and motives, using a modern and up to date style. It's movie for all audiences which satisfies adults and fascinates even the very young.
