“The true form of "Evangelion: Death."”

AnimationScience FictionActionDrama

A highly experimental film presenting a story out of chronological order taking place 15 years after a near-apocalyptic catastrophe, about four traumatized 14 year olds who are tasked with piloting massive humanoid decisive weapons called Evangelion, the psychologically maladjusted adults who handle and command them, and the events and forces that affect them or which they take part in as they engage massive hostile invaders known as "Angels."

VIBE

A deeply unsettling, philosophical journey into the minds of broken teenagers. It's a visually striking, often abstract exploration of trauma and the burden of saving humanity, leaving you with more questions than answers.
