Synopsis

Short film to a song of love lost and rediscovered, a woman sees and undergoes surreal transformations. Her lover's face melts off, she dons a dress from the shadow of a bell and becomes a dandelion, ants crawl out of a hand and become Frenchmen riding bicycles. Not to mention the turtles with faces on their backs that collide to form a ballerina, or the bizarre baseball game.

Rectangular_businessman A fascinating, atypical short from Disney.Words are not enough to describe the breathtaking beauty from this animation, which explores in a whimsical, totally dream-like way several themes and motifs displayed by the art works done by Salvador Dalí. If "Fantasia" was able to turn music into animation, "Destino" turns both the music and the animation into poetry, reaching a level of lyricism that hardly could be achieved by other kind of format."Destino" is the kind of short that cannot be described, it must be seen to understand what makes this so great. "Destino" is another proof of the possibilities that the animated medium have, being able to express wonderfully the most abstract concepts into a visual format, the most poetical way that somebody could imagine.A must-see.
patraallen1 This was a fantastic example of the good that technology brings.I was delighted by it and I am thrilled that this dream was brought to fruition.Who ever thought Dali and Disney would collaborate. A must see it is moving art, song, and poetry! And a huge credit to the art world. If you are an art enthusiast, Or if you are enthralled by Disney's darker side, find a way to see it. The imagery is classic Dali. I understand many could be turned off by some of the images brought to screen by Dali in the past i.e. the Andilusian Dog, but Disney's influence is clearly visible. The musical score is haunting and at times Very indicative of Classic Disney scores. If you like animated shorts, the art of Dali, and are open minded you will enjoy this one.
gregkimmelman My wife and I accidentally saw this little film as a prelude to The Triplets of Belleville. Having never heard of it before, not being aware it was nominated for awards...nothing, we had no pre-conceived notions about it and were pleasantly surprised. Since we weren't sure what to expect of "The Triplets", and this little cartoon came on first, we thought we were watching Triplets. We felt this was an awesome little cartoon vignette, but couldn't take much more than what we saw. It was truly a visual feast that came close to cerebral cortex overload. We were relieved when we figured out that this wasn't the feature film, but felt that we were treated to something special in addition to the awesome cartoon Triplets of Belleville.
JonBowerbank Although it wasn't completely made by the original collaborators (Dali & Walt Disney), it still has their vision taken from their storyboards. This is classic Dali mixed with a female protagonist who has the familiar Disney style face.Great story, with a wonderful somewhat tragic ending.
