Well our film MARX FOR BEGINNERS, by the wonderful British animator Bob
Godfrey, not only explains the philosophy of the great thinker, but also
summarizes the history of western philosophy by introducing Pythagoras,
Plato, Aristotle, da Vinci, Copernicus, Galileo, and Descartes -- all in
even less time, only SEVEN minutes. For a complete description go to:

Maybe this helps?
