2023moviePor qué verla
Directed by Jérémie Périn, this is one of the sharpest, most sophisticated animated cyberpunk films to arrive in years1,2. It masterfully fuses classic detective noir with genuinely thoughtful hard science fiction2,3,4. Following a world-weary private eye and her android partner—a robotic backup housing the consciousness of her deceased human colleague—the film uses a missing-person investigation to dig into autonomy, corporate conspiracy, and artificial intelligence ethics2,5. For anyone who loves Blade Runner, Ghost in the Shell, or Chinatown, it feels instantly vital rather than derivative3,4.
Dónde verla
Rather than living exclusively on a single subscription streamer worldwide, it is most widely available to rent or purchase digitally across major video-on-demand services (such as Apple TV, Amazon Prime Video, Google Play / YouTube Movies, and Fandango at Home) in North America, Europe, and many other territories1. In select regions (notably the US and Canada), it also surfaces on library-linked streaming platforms such as Kanopy6.
Qué esperar
Tone: Gritty, cerebral, stylishly cool, and melancholic4. It treats its world and characters with straight-faced seriousness, avoiding cartoony tropes. Pacing: Lean and brisk, clocking in at around 88 minutes2,3. It alternates between quiet, atmospheric investigative beats and sudden bursts of tight, kinetic action. Content Notes: Strictly aimed at adults1,7. Expect graphic gun violence, cybernetic body horror, frank discussions of addiction and loss, brief nudity, and coarse language. Both the original French voice track and the English dub are well executed, though the French audio with subtitles is widely considered the quintessential way to experience it3,7.
