Metropia

Sweden

Interesting animated dystopian future film. It's a tired genre but the animation here was distinctive enough and the characters well enough realized that the whole film worked for me.

All travel in future Europe is by underground rail and in this environment voices, thoughts are placed in peoples' minds by the authorities as a means of social control. Not unlike the NY Times or NPR today.

We follow an everyman who tries to avoid this nightmare but his bicycle is vandalized so down the rathole he goes. Intriguing and well done.
