A event held at The Ill Repute on Thursday 25th January. The event starts at 21:00.
ANIMATED DOUBLE FEATURE: Fantastic Planet (1973) + It's Such A Beautiful Day (2012)
Nothing else has ever looked or felt like director René Laloux’s animated marvel Fantastic Planet, a politically minded and visually inventive work of science fiction. The film is set on a distant planet called Ygam, where enslaved humans (Oms) are the playthings of giant blue native inhabitants (Draags). After Terr, kept as a pet since infancy, escapes from his gigantic child captor, he is swept up by a band of radical fellow Oms who are resisting the Draags’ oppression and violence. With its eerie, coolly surreal cutout animation by Roland Topor; brilliant psychedelic jazz score by Alain Goraguer; and wondrous creatures and landscapes, this Cannes-awarded 1973 counterculture classic is a perennially compelling statement against conformity and violence.
Free Entry!
Please note, this screening is part of a DOUBLE FEATURE. Start times:
19:30 - It's Such A Beautiful Day (runtime: 62mins)
21:00 - Fantastic Planet (runtime: 71mins)
