In 2200, private detective Aline Ruby and her android partner Carlos Rivera are hired by a wealthy businessman to track down a notorious hacker. On Mars, they descend deep into the underbelly of the planet’s capital city where they uncover a darker story of brain farms, corruption, and a missing girl who holds a secret about the robots that threatens to change the face of the universe. Mars Express premiered in 2023 at Cannes Film Festival and at the same year was selected for competition at Annecy International Animation Festival. The film was nominated for the César Award for Best Animated Film

”Our desire is to give back to the audience the cosmic and existential dizziness given by the classics of the genre, such as Alien, 2001: A Space Odyssey or Robocop. The science fiction that we love is at the point of collision between a genre and the future. This science fiction makes it possible to tackle universal human themes and its problems.”
