An Animated Atlas of the World (Captioned)

Strongman, Atlas, is the humorous animated host of this tour around the globe. Sounding like the recent movie hero “Rocky”, Atlas provides accurate information on weather, wind, tides, storms and general geography for each country he visits. The film combines animation and some short live-action segments.
