Midori-Ko

Midori-Ko - Keita Kurosaka

In this dark sci-fi tale, 21st century Tokyo is depicted as a city at the edge of apocalypse. A big food crisis is coming. 5 scientists try to develop a 'dream food', both meat and vegetables. But when they succeed in making this animal/vegetables hybrid that's named 'Midori-Ko', the food has no intention of being eaten and flies away. This animated film is completely hand-drawn by Keita Kurosaka. The 30,000 drawings took him 13 years to complete. (2010, JP, 55 min)
