This movie intrigued me by how it looked. It’s animation (I don’t think it was rotoscoped) but black and white. Think A Scanner Darkly but black and white.
Visually, the movie is stunning.
The movie follows a cop on a new assignment, a missing persons assignment. It takes place in France in the year 2054. They have a company called Avalon that is all about beauty and health and living long, think Equilibrium -esque. The missing person is a scientist from the Avalon corporation.
A decent mystery/thriller story, but a little bit predictable. Overall it was a good movie, I can recommend it. It’s in French, so you’ll need subtitles if you don’t speak French.
