9

I think I've been over-animated this summer... My latest animated film, 9, based on Shane Acker's 11-minute, Academy Award-nominated short (2005), is a post apocalyptic vision of the world where machines have eradicated mankind. Except, that is, for nine cloth and metal dolls somehow endowed with the last souls of humanity. If these dolls can figure out their creator's plan to save themselves, they can save humanity. I left the theatre wondering if they were successful, and if I hadn't slept through the climax. Thankfully the movie only lasts one hour. I'd skip this one.

Check it out...Sorry, I'm not even sure what you might want to check out after seeing this film.
