Winner of two Academy Awards for "The Return of the Jedi" and "Jurassic Park", Phil Tippett is a stop motion animator, a director and a designer who has given life to unforgettable creatures throughout his career, from Jabba the Hutt to the giant bugs of "Starship Troopers". But beyond this Hollywood resume lies an artist, who spends most of his days experimenting in his workshop with everything he can find. The documentary studies the legacy of Phil Tippett, from his work with George Lucas, Steven Spielberg and Paul Verhoeven to more personal movies, like "Prehistoric Beast" and "Mad God".
