After the death of his mother, the evil mutant wizard Blackwolf discovers some long-lost military technologies. Full of ego and ambition, Blackwolf claims his mother's throne, assembles an army and sets out to brainwash and conquer Earth. Meanwhile, Blackwolf's gentle twin brother, the bearded and sage Avatar, calls upon his own magical abilities to foil Blackwolf's plans for world domination -- even if it means destroying his own flesh and blood.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A gloriously strange animated fever dream that mixes high fantasy with post-apocalyptic dread, where rotoscoped armies clash and the fate of the world hinges on a sibling conflict between good and evil wizards. It's a boldly surreal film that refuses easy answers, maintaining an unsettling energy even as its whimsy threatens to tip into darkness.
