Gandahar (Original French with English Subs).mp4

Released in French in 1988, Rene Laloux's masterpiece Gandahar was later re-written by Issac Asimov and redubbed in English. Released as "Light Years" the English version follows the original closely, but removed the original soundtrack and edits out an 'adult' scene between the movie's hero and heroine.



This restored version is the original French with hardcoded English subtitles. The original voice cast and soundtrack are preserved, and the deleted 'sex scene' has been restored.



From IMBD:



This animated film is set on the planet Gandahar, where peace reigns and poverty is unknown. The utopian lifestyle is upset by reports of people at the outlying frontiers being turned to stone. Sent to investigate, Prince Sylvain (John Shea) crashes and is rescued by the Deformed, hideous genetic experiments gone wrong and left to fend for themselves. With their help, Sylvain discovers that the Metamorphosis, a gigantic brain also created in an experiment, is trying to destroy Gandahar.
