Arco

  • Dir: Ugo Bienvenu

  • France, 2025, French, 88mins, DCP

  • Cast: (Voice Cast) Oscar Tresanini, Sophie Mas, Oxmo Puccino, Joséphine Mancini, Margot Ringard Oldra

In the long-distant future, humans can travel through time with a rainbow cloak. Eager to see the dinosaurs, young Arco steals his sister’s cloak and travels to the past, only to accidentally land in the year 2075, where he forms a bond with a lonely girl desperate for companionship beyond her android nanny in a world facing impending climate apocalypse. Rightfully compared with the works of Studio Ghibli for vibrant visuals and an imaginative vision that defies sci-fi genre conventions, this sweet and bittersweet adventure – coproduced by Natalie Portman – features a bleak yet surprisingly optimistic outlook of humanity’s future.
