[ad#ad-2]

“Tekkonkinkreet” – In Treasure Town, orphans Black and White rule the mean streets through violence and terror. These lost boys are direct opposites: Black being a streetwise punk who embodies everything wrong about the city, while White is a innocent dope, out of touch with the world around him. Together, they’re unstoppable as they take on petty thugs, religious fanatics and brutal yakuza. But when a corporation called “Kiddy Kastle” tries to tear down and rebuild Treasure Town to fit its own goals, the boys must save the soul of their beloved city, that is if they can save themselves from inner demons. Based on Taiyo Matsumoto’s serialized manga “Black and White.”

Stay tuned to find out if “Tekkonkinkreet” gets a “2008 Oscar Nomination” for Best Animated Film!
