During the Cold War, a young boy befriends a big metal-eating robot from outer space which crashlands near his small town, but the paranoid government sends agents to investigate. This lovely animated fable, based on a children's story by poet Ted Hughes, flopped on its release but is now hailed as a modern classic.
The French subtitled version will be shown in the Ledoux room and the Dutch subtitled version in the Plateau room, simultaneously.
