The City and the Stars


The City and the Stars

I'm reading Arthur C. Clarke's sci-fi novel 'The City and the Stars' at the moment, and decided to make an animated teaser trailer for it.

A billion years in the future, Diaspar is the last city on Earth, completely self contained and self sufficient from the endless desert surrounding it. Humanity has regressed to a point where no one dares venture outside the city, except for a select few born every thousand years. The story follows one of these 'uniques' called Alvin, who has a compulsion to explore and find answers.

The music track used is called "Reborn" by Colin Stetson, from the Hereditary soundtrack.
