A skateboardmovie about Dennis Gläser and an ant...<br />

Synopsis:<br />
FORMIC is a special kind of skateboardmovie. On one hand we have classic,<br />
high-speed camera with dynamic and smooth jumps, on the other we<br />
developed the micro-universe of an ant. We enter this world by zooming in with<br />
3D animation. So we see how the skater disturbs the life of the ant and finally it<br />
takes revenge.<br />
