Fantastic Planet
Hailed by the sci fi scene, La Plančte sauvage [lit. The Savage Planet, Eng release as Fantastic Planet] is a trippy French animation film about a world where Humans are the pets and the Draag's are the giant masters. One human, which are called Om's in the movie, excapes "captivity" from his master and begins to spread knowledge he obtained while in captivity to other Oms. A rebelion is in the making.
Fantastic Planet won a special prize at the 1973 Cannes Film Festival. It is also thought to be a one of a kind animation feature, with an adult story [no adult situations though] and a serious matter.
I have yet to finish the movie. The link I gave for it is a silent dub with the creepiest music Ive ever heard, but its still a cool movie. The DVD is out, but can fetch a pritty penny to the seller. Now, speaking on the animation department. Its classicly animated [a duh] by french/czech artist Roland Tropor (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roland_Topor) and plays a lot on surrealism. The animation is, not bad but its not super. It also isnt choppy. It is somthing of its own.
