An amazing collection of systems that work together to support life, the human body's nervous, digestive, respiratory, and musculoskeletal systems also let us "gurgle, burp, gasp, and giggle." Comprised of 5-6 minute segments, Body Systems combines computer-generated and real-life images, as well as illustrative examples, to explore the biological functions and purposes of each system. Featuring cool visuals (including seeing organs through skin) and an informative script, this basic guide to the body's blueprint is recommended. Aud: I, J. (E. Gieschen)

Star Ratings
As of March 2022, Video Librarian has changed from a four-star rating system to a five-star one. This change allows our reviewers to have a wider range of critical viewpoints, as well as to synchronize with Google’s rating structure. This change affects all reviews from March 2022 onwards. All reviews from before this period will still retain their original rating. Future film submissions will be considered our new 1-5 star criteria.
