'Dolls'
live in a world of machines where their only purpose is to service human desires.
Malice@Doll is a humanoid robot prostitute,
left in a world were most humans are long gone... one day she discovers that she
is malfunctioning.
Setting out on a journey to the repairer's domain, she sees a vision of a young
blond girl and follows her into a chamber of surrealistic proportions.
She is attacked by a bizarre tentacled inhabitant, causing her to blackout. When
Malice wakes up, she realizes that her body is no longer the same pink-haired
mass of mechanical parts. Her skin is suddenly soft, light, and warm. Her hair
is a beautiful dark red…and her heart is engulfed by a host of unfamiliar
sensations…
We are proud to present the World Premiere of the movie length
version of the 3D animated Malice@Doll. Presented in Japanese,
with English subtitles.
The movie is preceeded by a talk from Jonathan Clements.
'FINAL FANTASIES'
Writer and translator Jonathan Clements presents
a brief history of digital anime, from the first stirrings in Golgo 13, to the
advanced computer graphics of today.
What made companies work with computers? What impact did it have on the anime
industry? Who was the nutter who captured his own heart monitor readout and put
it on screen? How did the rise of computer games and digital animation affect
the kind of story that got made? And what happens next?
