ICARUS AND THE MINOTAUR

Icare

LUXEMBOURG
Directed by: Carlo Vogele

Former Pixar animator Carlo Vogele (MONSTERS UNIVERSITY, CARS 2, TOY STORY 3) here delivers an entertaining film that reimagines the mythical story of Icarus as a little boy. Once upon a time, on the island of Crete during the age of King Minos, lived a daydreaming young boy named Icarus. One day, he discovers and befriends a mysterious creature that has the body of a man and the head of a bull: Asterion, also known as the Minotaur. When the King asks Icarus’ father, the famous inventor Daedalus, to work on a secret project that involves a dark labyrinth, Icarus realizes his new friend might be in grave danger. Can Icarus save the Minotaur and change the course of a fateful story written by the gods? Suitable for ages 8 and up.

“Retells the origins of the legend with elegant, dreamy, and poetic animation.”
