Feature debut

Lubicchi, a lonely young chimney sweep, lives in the big city of Chimney Town, where the sky is shrouded in thick smoke. On Halloween night, he meets a strange humanoid creature made up of bits of scrap metal and waste, whom he names Poupelle. Alone against everyone, they try to prove to the disbelieving inhabitants that there are stars beyond the fog that hangs over their heads. An amazing friendship develops between these two outcasts, who have embarked on breathless adventures and are hunted by the dangerous Inquisitors who want to preserve the status quo. A visual world of marvels, worthy of the best Ghibli productions.
