Celebrating its 20th anniversary with a stunning 4K restoration, Michael Arias's adaptation of Taiyo Matsumoto's manga is a visually electrifying, genre-defying work of animation.
Black, a tough and skilled fighter, and his naïve younger brother White, are two orphaned street kids patrolling the slums of Treasure Town. When gangsters threaten to tear down what's left of the city to build a theme park, the kids are thrown into a nonstop battle to survive, taking on yakuza, alien assassins, and ultimately their own demons. Based on the legendary manga by Taiyo Matsumoto and featuring stunning, action-packed visuals from STUDIO4°C (Mind Game) and a lush soundtrack by electronic music pioneers Plaid, Tekkonkinkreet is a modern cult classic - a sensitive story of brotherhood and connection in a decaying world, now beautifully remastered in 4K.
