Phantom Boy

cert. PG | by J-L. Felicioli & A. Gagnol, 2016, 86′, animation, in French with English subtitles

After their successful partnership on A Cat in Paris, Felicioli & Gagnol have set their next animation Phantom Boy in the city of New York. This time they unveil the adventures of Leo, a little boy stuck in bed with a serious illness, who at night floats outside his own body, swooping through walls, ceilings and between skyscrapers like a superhero. Leo meets Alex, a gruff policeman determined to catch the criminal known as The Man with the Broken Face.
