The Motion Gallery website launched a crowdfunding project on Saturday to fund a feature-length anime film project based on Finnish author Leena Krohn’s Sfinksi vai Robotti (Sphinx or Robot) book.
She released the all-ages illustrated philosophy book Sfinksi vai Robotti in 1999.
The book’s release in Japan is titled Sphinx ka Robot ka, and it contains three works, including the Taiyō no Kodomo-tachi (Children of the Sun) novella that will inspire the anime.
Kanie plans to start screening the film at international film festivals in February 2022, and plans to open the film in Japan in summer 2022.
