Screen/Society--"The Time Masters" (René Laloux, 1982)

THE TIME MASTERS
(René Laloux 1982, 79 min, France, French with English subtitles, DCP)

New 4K Restoration!

Directed by visionary sci-fi animator René Laloux (FANTASTIC PLANET) and co-written and designed by the legendary Jean Giraud (a.k.a. Mœbius), THE TIME MASTERS is a trippy, visually fantastic foray into existentialist space adventure. After his parents are killed on the dangerous planet Perdide, young Piel survives by maintaining radio contact with Jaffar, a pilot transporting an exiled Prince and Princess from their former kingdom. Jaffar seeks the help of Silbad, a cheerful old-timer who knows how to circumvent Perdide's hazards, including treacherous caves, brain-devouring hornets and watery graves.
