4.0 / 10 · TMDB

Over many years, the animals evolved in isolated cities, with artificial genetic crossbreeding, they acquire language, bipedality, and build a life and civilization for themselves free from want. No one thinks of the world below any longer. One day, a single plant seed wanders into one of the sky cities, and the children Kui, Hiruma, and Root discover it. Unable to resist the temptation to look into the world outside, they decide to undertake an adventure to the outside world, unknowing that once they set foot on the ground, they will never be able to return.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The animation constructs a breathtaking world where biological sci-fi becomes a metaphor for exploring isolation, curiosity, and the cost of freedom. It relies on visual poetry to tell a story of irreversible choices and a paradise lost.

What lingers after the credits is a meditative and philosophical journey, where every frame is layered with meaning, and a quiet melancholy blends with a sense of foreboding. It leaves a gentle ache and questions about the borders of our own utopias. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Takahiro Tanaka
