Created by Albert Barillé
On Canal+
A whimsical, educational animated tour through human biology that treats the body's systems as wonders to be celebrated rather than clinical subjects.
Attention please! Are you ready for an adventurous tour through the human body? With a lot of humour, our physical appearance is being introduced from head to toe along cells and organs in an educational way. The heart, blood, nerves and kidneys, each single one is a miracle which renders life possible.
