Best Film at the Annecy Animation Festival, acclaimed as a movie that won't just make children crave animated figurines, but one that makes the world a better place. In another France ruled by Napoleon V in the mid-20th century, scientists have been disappearing for 70 years, great inventions like flight, electricity, and even film have become nothing but dreams, and only Eiffel has built a second tower. Coal and steam have filled the sky with soot, necessitating gas masks for going outside, and the grand palace has turned into a massive greenhouse. Afie (voiced beautifully by Marion Cotillard) has scientist parents who also disappeared mysteriously. When her old cat Darwin becomes critically ill, Afie secretly concocts an immortality potion, leading her on an adventurous escape, joined by the sharp-tongued Darwin, her clever grandfather, and the traitorous agent Zulia, all entwined in their fates. Produced by the team behind "I Grew Up in Iran," based on the work of French cartoonist Jacques Tardi, this film blends the inspirations of Jules Verne and Hayao Miyazaki in a rare nostalgic animation style, reclaiming the lost era of animation.
