This anthology pairs Katsuhiro Otomo (of 'Akira' fame) and Satoshi Kon (creator of 'Millenium Actress' and 'Paranoia Agent'); It contains 3 unrelated stories, all three of which are nuanced in their execution and beautifully animated.
The first section, 'Magnetic Rose' is an sci-fi ghost story. It feels like what happens if the life story of Marie Callas were re-enacted on the deck of the 'Event Horizon'; haunting, sad and utterly absorbing.
The second section, 'Stink Bomb', lightens the mood by engaging in broad slapstick. In this dark comedic romp, an inept salaryman is chased by the National Defense Forces after becoming the vector of a new, experimental bio-weapon.
The film is closed out by a short, moody piece called 'Cannon Fodder'; in it, we see into the a dreadful single day in the life of a family of a dead end culture, obsessed with the empty minutiae of (possibly imaginary?) war.
See it, Learn it, Love it.
