This claymation chess game is a re-enactment of the famous one between Roesch and Schlage in Hamburg in 1910 which was also featured in Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey. This video, directed and animated by Riccardo Crocetta, begins with two innocent looking balls of clay but by the end snakes, winged horses, unicorns and sharks fight it out.
