Nekojiru-so

or "Cat Soup"
(2001)

I always thought La planète sauvage was the most surreal, psychedelic movie that I have ever seen. Sure, Yellow Submarine was just as good, and the Point is also a favorite of mines, but something about La planète sauvage just got me. Cat Soup follows in the similar aspect of these aforementioned films, though it is less story driven. Centered around two cats in a surreal world, things start to go awry when the older sister cat falls ill and in the process loses part of her soul (at least, I think that's what happened). Afterwards the younger sister cat must drag her older sister, discovering new lands, animals, adventures all in the pursuit of curing her sister. Being less than half an hour long, it's a lot of fun, and quite short so you can always go to that fast food place right after.
