The anime movie bubbleavailable on Netflix, is a gem of mixed media animation: if you’re curious about how a modern film of the genre takes shape, we recommend watching this backstage video that shows the processing of the feature film, from the storyboard to the full animation.

This is the official summary:
In a Tokyo where gravity has been shattered, a boy and a girl come together… This story is set in Tokyo, after a shower of bubbles has fallen on Earth, undermining the laws of physics.
Secluded from the rest of the world, Tokyo has become the playground of a group of young people who have lost their families, the setting for battles between parkour teams flying between buildings. One day, Hibiki, a young champion known for his reckless style, makes a rash move and falls into the sea still obeying gravity. Uta, a girl with mysterious powers, saves his life. At that moment, the two hear a certain sound, imperceptible to the others. Why did Hibiki and Uta’s fates intersect? Their meeting is the beginning of a revelation that will change everything.
