<\/h2>\n<\/h2>\n| 2016 – 105′ – Adventure,\u00a0Animation, Sci-Fi, Paris. From the creators of the Academy Award\u00ae-nominated Persepolis and the mind of renowned graphic novelist Jacques Tardi comes a riveting sci-fi adventure set in an alternate steampunk universe. Paris, 1941. A family of scientists is on the brink of discovering a powerful longevity serum when all of a sudden a mysterious force abducts them, leaving their young daughter April behind. Ten years later, April (voiced by Academy Award\u00ae nominee Marion Cotillard) lives alone with her dear cat, Darwin, and carries on her family\u2019s research in secret. But she soon finds herself at the center of a shadowy and far-reaching conspiracy, and on the run from government agents, bicycle-powered dirigibles and cyborg rat spies. Also features a new English dub with the voices of Paul Giamatti, Tony Hale, Susan Sarandon and J.K.
