See the inspiration for ODU's Third Annual Public Arts Festival: FANTASTIC PLANET. Joining us will be Dr. Peter Schulman (World Languages & Cultures), who will host a panel to discuss what is maybe the most 'Naro Minded' movie ever made.
"Nothing else has ever looked or felt like director René Laloux’s animated marvel FANTASTIC PLANET, a politically minded and visually inventive work of science fiction...
With its eerie, coolly surreal cutout animation by Roland Topor; brilliant psychedelic jazz score by Alain Goraguer; and wondrous creatures and landscapes, this Cannes-awarded 1973 counterculture classic is a perennially compelling statement against conformity and violence." - Janus Films
