A journey through time, space and inside ourselves: getting to know more about SILK. How it was discovered, how it was brought into Europe, how it has been produced in the past and today, what are its properties and uses; how a little insect can create such an extraordinary material and the wonder of metamorphosis. How teenage pupils feel about their journey into life and their metamorphosis. In other words, history, geography, psychology, literature, art from our point of view.
