Vivian of private Movie Review
"Azur and Asumaru"

In public Michel Oslo's new animation that has worked a new Video clip of Bjork "Azur and Asumaru" we are at Shibuya Cinema Angelica. I also have appeared in Ghibli Nakajima director and talk show the other day. Oslo director such as "Kirikou and the Sorceress" and "Prince and Princess", it'll be highly rated in its own visual beauty and music.

Azul, which was brought up to the nanny (Europe area / France) and Asumaru (Islamic / Maghreb). Two people but can be brought up as if from when you were born like a real brother, the would have been torn apart by his father prior to adult. Asumaru would also chased from France along with the mother (nanny for the Azul). Become each other adult, Azur is go on a journey to rescue the gin of fairies had been told from childhood from the nanny. So also two people reunited. . .
France / Europe area and the Maghreb / ​​Islamic world, what is thought ,,, story of the old father of the generation thinking and young new generation of conflict is also a number to appear, it boys of growth and mutual understanding has been drawn. . .


通常の日本の冒険もので描かれるような見せ場はあっさりと描かれ、人物の表情の変化などエモーショナルな変化を実にうまく描き出しているの。オスロ監督の今回の試みは人物の表情のみ3DCGアニメーションを使用して、また背景は平面的でイスラムのモザイク画をそのまま張っている様。そういう手法がとてもユニークで類を見ないわね。画面はめまいを起こすほど美しく幻想的。 


オスロ監督のこのオリジナルの物語はとても現代性に溢れていて、テーマは「イスラム世界とヨーロッパ世界の不理解と理解」という全く今日的なの。でも何がファンタジーかといえばその美しい画面はもちろんだけれども、人間の心が変わること。心のなかに化学変化が起きて、異文化を理解することこそがファンタジーで素晴らしい の奇跡である事が理解できるわ。 

Really funny movie. Returns After not interesting money! ! !
