I fell asleep in the middle of it and when I woke up I didn't have the impression to have missed anything, so I guess that's good?
This is an animated film about Buñuel's making of _Las Hurdes: Tierra Sin Pan_ / _Land Without Bread_ (1933) and those who have seen that 'documentary' will no doubt appreciate this film more than I. The story and the pacing were fine in _Labyrinth of the Turtles_, though I found the animation style a little too... primitive for my tastes.
