GKIDS has acquired the North American rights to the Bruno Bozzetto catalog, including Allegro Non Troppo.

In celebration of its 50th anniversary, the newly restored animated musical will screen at Metrograph in New York City starting March 27, 2026.

Synopsis: An enterprising producer believes he has hit upon a winning concept: a program of original animated shorts set to classical music.

Undeterred by warnings that this has already been done by an American named ‘Prisney,’ he rallies an orchestra of geriatric women, a bullish conductor, and an animator that he keeps locked in the dungeon. What could go wrong?

A gleeful sendup of Disney’s Fantasia, Allegro Non Troppo blends live-action slapstick with cheeky animation for a film as joyful and raunchy as it is thoughtful and cutting.
