Origin: Spirits of the Past (2006)

Welcome to post-apocalyptic Japan (isn't it always?) 300 years in the future. However, it’s not the usual cyberpunk Akira (1988) rip-off.
Humanity and the forest have a tenuous relationship.
Two young people upset the balance.
The first Studio Gonzo feature length looks beautiful, except for bad CGI, but characterisation is lacking.
