Japan esescience-fiction animated movie byOsamu Tezuka . It is based on the manga Nextworld.toryline (Manga)
Created in a time when the
Cold War was becoming hotter, Nextworld is Osamu Tezuka's parody of the tense relationship between theUSA (represented as the 'Nation of Stars') andRussia (known in the work as the 'Uran Federation'). The main storyline focuses on atomic tests that create a race of mutant animals known as Fumoon, with psychic powers and intelligance beyond humans, who formulate a plan to evacuate hundreds of animals and a small group of people off the planet Earth. The reason for this is due to a large toxic cloud approaching the Earth, threatening to wipe out all life. Meanwhile, the two warring superpowers draw closer and closer to a confrontation...The anime film (based on the manga) is similar, but omits characters from the manga.
