Synopsis:
Rene Laloux, director of 'Fantastic Planet' (La Planete sauvage), created 'Gandahar', his final animated feature film, in 1988. Based on an original story by Jean-Pierre Andrevon, and a huge hit in France at the time of it's release, it combines Laloux's famous imagination with that of animation designer Philippe Caza. 'Gandahar' is a fascinating, adult animation which examines genetic mutation, the importance of organic farming, and urges a respect for nature that resonates today more than ever. Life in the idyllic paradise of Gandahar seems peaceful and in joyous order, until the Mirror Birds report that inhabitants of whole villages have been turned to stone.
A council of women chooses Sylvain Lanvere to uncover Gandahar's mysterious matallic attackers. In doing so, he finds an underground race of deformed Gandaharians and an oversized motherbrain, both the result of botched genetic experiments.
