The Cristal winner for Best Feature Film at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival is the first animated film based on the work of French comic artist Tardi.
This dystopian adventure sees France stuck in the industrial Middle Ages where Napoleon’s heirs rule the country, scientists and scholars have gone missing for years, leaving behind a world deprived of their technological innovations. In this land powered by coal and steam, young April searches for her missing scientist parents with Darwin, her talking cat, and Julius, a young scoundrel.
