A private eye looks for a young and beautiful female scientist in a mid-21st century Paris. She has been kidnapped and is the object of a secret conflict that involves the future of mankind. Beautifully handled black and white contribute to the stylishness of Christian Volckman’s film, based on animation that uses images of real actors that are then transformed into 3D characters. The story evokes such contemporary themes as the relationship between ethics and genetics.
