Synopsis

In this visually stunning animated fantasy, death is just the beginning. Between life and rebirth lies “Another World”, where the spirit guide Gudo shepherds lost souls to their reincarnation. When he encounters Yuri, a young girl whose uncontrollable rage threatens both the physical and spiritual realms, Gudo faces his greatest challenge yet. Tasked by Goddess Mira to prevent Yuri’s curse from destroying the world, Gudo embarks on a perilous mission – a thousand-year journey. Marking a triumphant return of Hong Kong animation to the global stage, Ng’s adaptation of the Japanese novel Sennenki is a mesmerising exploration of grief, anger, and redemption.
