Beginning with the fun beach activity of fishing for shrimp, this film goes on to carefully study a shrimp, explaining things like the function of the shrimp’s claws, its system of predation, reproduction, digestion, and infant metamorphosis.
Painlevé shot more than two hundred films over sixty years, on a broad gamut of interesting phenomena, but often with a fondness for marine life. Shrimp Stories is one of these: goofy, exploratory fishing for shrimp uncovers a mystery underworld beneath the sea, animated to music by Pierre Conté.
