Direction: John Forrest

Production: George JohnsonSvend-Erik Eriksen

Did you know that there are approximately five billion tiny armadillo-like mites and bacteria roaming around your body? When you think about it, our planet is blessed with a similar population. From the microscopic world of our personal fauna to the macroscopic beauty of the cosmos, Little Armadillos explores interconnectedness of worlds both large and small.

In this zany animated short, the universe is just one very big--and very small--dance of life... rockin' to the tune of co-director John Forrest's title song, with Long John Baldry, Canada's King of rock and roll, on vocals.
