Filmmaker Fred Casia, inspired by the iconic '50s-vintage View-Master stereo viewer and '60s-era TV nature shows, takes us on a weird and wacky 3-D safari through the jungle that is the human digestive system. With 2-D digital animation set into a diorama-esque stereoscopic space, Casia creates a small, bizarre gem. Produced as part of the 6th edition of the NFB’s Hothouse apprenticeship.

How
does the human body’s digestive system protect the body from food borne
disease, parasites, harmful bacteria and organisms? What can be done to food
before it is consumed, between the store and the mouth, in order to protect
the body from food borne disease, parasites, harmful bacteria and organisms?
Students can investigate the government’s role, programs, procedures and laws
that serve to protect the food chain and the health of its citizens.
