From Mamoru Oshii, the world-acclaimed director of Ghost in the Shell comes an award-winning story of an exciting but endless war with heroes too young to understand the meaning of their battles. A group of eternally young fighter pilots known as Kildren experience the sudden loss of innocence as they battle the enemy in astonishing dogfights above the clouds. With his only childhood memory consisting of intense flight training, the fearless teenage pilot Yuichi`s dogfights coexist with his struggle to find his missing past. When his beautiful, young female commander Suito is reluctant to discuss the fate of the pilot that Yuichi is replacing - or the strangely perfect condition of that pilot`s former aircraft - Yuichi`s curiosity becomes heightened.

Bittersüsser Nachtschatten

Written on 11. November 2011 by Zoé.
This customer review refers to a alternative version.

Was für eine tieftraurige Geschichte! So einsam wie der kalte Himmel in der sich das ewige Drama des Krieges abspielt und so fundamental unvereinbar wie sich Mensch und Cyber gegenüberstehen. Denn je süsser sich die Begegnung erweist, je bitterer fällt sie in Wirklichkeit aus. Und da hilft keine Romantik denn Jene denen 'vergessen' Erlösung bedeutete - müssen erinnern und Jene denen die Erinnerung eine Geschichte verleihen könnte, erlangen sie nimmer... Selbst ein Hund muss da weinen... ...Tut er auch!
