Premise, bold female characters, Swift pace (0 more)
A story of passion, friendship, obsession, and self-discovery
Give yourself a few hours to dip into the creative world of animation—one you haven’t likely given much thought to in the past.

This novel is rich with character details and development, while holding back as much as the characters hold from themselves.


It’s an unfolding of the creative process, of friendship and love and loyalty, with a shadow of darkness and feminism. It could have become strident, but Whitaker strikes a balance of advancing the story while leaving the reader to draw their conclusions about self-exploration and the exploitation of others.

An Interesting Approach to Sci-Fi
I'll be honest, I've heard some pretty crappy reviews about this movie so I went into it expecting it to be pretty awful. However, it wasn't. I found this to be an interesting movie about self-discovery and the bond between father and son. The visuals and CGI work were astounding. While it wasn't as fantastic as some science fiction movies I've seen, it was undoubtedly a good one.
