L'Œuf de l'ange

Barren streets. Endless twilight. A fragile egg. The girl protects her orb from the desolate world, scavenging for sustenance among gothic ruins. A nameless soldier arrives, bearing a weapon for hunting invisible prey. Oshii's surreal anime is less narrative puzzle than devotional object.
