Information About

Renaissance (film)




Renaissance is a French Animated Movie , a Science-fiction detective movie, co-produced in France , United Kingdom and Luxembourg , directed by Christian Volckman and released on March 15 2006 in France. The movie uses the '' Motion Capture '' technique to create a 3D universe, its quirkyness coming from the fact it is entirely black and white (except some few elements in color at the end of the movie). It shares some ressemblance in looks with the movie '' Sin City ''.


SYNOPSIS

The action takes place in Paris in 2054 . The expressways along the Seine river are enclosed in glass tunnels and huge lofts seem to float in the night. Ilona Tasuiev, a young scientist and employee of the powerful Avalon conglomerate, is kidnapped for reasons unknown. Inspector Karas is leading the search...


TRIVIA

In a similar way to Audi with its RSQ for '' I, Robot '', French automaker Citroën designed a car specially for the film, imagining what a Citroën might look like in 2054.
