"Au 8ème Jour," which translates to "On the 8th Day" in French, uses CG, or computer-generated animation techniques to create a three-dimensional world in a stop-motion style. A multitude of vibrant animals and landscapes appear sewn from fabric in the film's otherworldly realm, each tethered to a single piece of yarn that connects it to a kind of central energy force-a vibrant, tightly-wrapped skein in the sky. But when mysteriously dark tendrils of black fiber begin to leech into this idyllic world, families and herds must run for their lives.
