It’s 2932. Ten-year-old Arco is frustrated. As the age limit for time travel is 12 he is unable to join his parents and older sister on their journeys. So, one night he takes his sibling’s time-travelling robe and finds himself in 2075, where he befriends young Iris. It doesn’t take long for his arrival to be registered, but Arco realises the journey home may not be as easy as he thought. A riveting, joyful and rapturously colourful film, Arco is one of the nominees for this year’s Best Animation Academy Award.
