If you loved King of Thorn, try Appleseed - Kampf um die Freiheit
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Kazuyoshi Katayama, and they sit in Animation / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to King of Thorn, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Appleseed - Kampf um die Freiheit is
You patrol Olympus as a rookie with a cyborg partner who reads your mind and you like it. Lieutenant gets assigned to bomb site that shouldn’t exist. The city’s dome flickers like an old bulb.
