Question
Hi, im trying to trace down a short film (30mins?) that i saw in the early nineties on TV. The film was essentially a long zoom out featuring numerous famous paintings/portraits merging into each other. I believe the sequence ends on the Mona Lisa!
Any ideas?

Answer
Hi Sion,

I'm not too sure what this film is, though I will take a guess and say that it is the 7 minute short film "Mona Lisa Descending a Staircase" from 1992. Check out the following link for further information:

Best of luck and if this is not it, then I hope you find it someday soon.
