Synopsis
Bing and Bong have tickets for the cinema. En route, the low evening sun casts giant shadows of the two. At first Bong is frightened, but Bing quickly shows Bong how to have fun with them. When they arrive at the theatre, the Flocker responsible for the Robot Projector has nodded off, causing the film to unwind and the projector to turn over. Bing gets to work remedying the situation. Bong finds a spotlight that points to the screen, and Bing and Bong begin a shadow-puppet routine. The Flockers honk with glee at the spectacle while the Loudspeaker Robot adds an accompanying soundtrack.

Production notes
Tiny Planet of Light and Colour
Shadows are caused by blocking light - the shape and orientation of the object blocking the light help determine the shape of the shadow. Also, making shapes with your hands can result in shadow pictures.
Bing and Bong are the heroes of the universe, flying to tiny planets on their fluffy white sofa to explore and discover color, nature, sound and technology.
This TV series is aimed toward 3- to 5-year-olds. The series can be divided into 16 26-minute episodes.
This is the only Montessori-endorsed television program in the world.
