Nominated for Best Animated Feature 
Arco (Juliano Krue Valdi) lives in the far future where time travel is possible thanks to rainbow-colored capes and diamonds that break down light. His parents and sister travel to the past to retrieve rare or extinct plants but all Arco wants is to see real dinosaurs. One night, he steals his sister's flying suit and goes to the past, but shorts it and ends up in the near future of 2075 instead. After a crash landing, he meets Iris (Romy Fay), a ten-year-old girl desperate for connection since her parents work all week and leave her and her baby brother in the care of Mikki, a robot. Arco lost his traveling diamond in the woods where he landed and Iris agrees to help him look for it despite the pending threat of wildfires.
This is a very pretty movie. That's about all I can say about it. It's fine. It feels like an anime but is French. I tried to get the French language track on Amazon but it wouldn't take, for some reason, so I watched the English dub. I found the three brothers super annoying but otherwise, it's not bad. It's at least an original. Currently only available for rent.
