Subway to Paradise

An ecological message tied up in a fantasy-future animation package by writer Bent Haller and director Jannik Hastrup: In a not too distant future mankind has been reduced to serve as the slaves of giant rats in underground caves. But a smoldering dream of sunshine up above lives on, and the children Strit and Stumme stage a revolt against the rats and lead the way back to mankind’s Paradise Lost.
