Through the travail of the ages, mankind thought that it was alone in the universe. That it alone was the sole dominant existence in the galaxy. In the year 2039, mankind learned just how dangerous that assumption would prove to be. A mysterious and formidable alien race known as the Tarsians appeared and dealt humanity its baptism by fire on a cosmic scale. It is now 2048, and the Earth has compiled an overwhelming amount of military resources in order to launch a counterattack against the alien aggressors that devastated the Martian expeditionary force.

This film is a real, 'Must-See' for all fans of Japanese animation. Visually stunning, it must rate as one of the best works ever to come from across the great divide.
It concerns two people, (one in deep space and the other on Earth), who can only communicate by text messages.
The emotions felt by both people are conveyed effortlessly and with deep reverence.
Rent it now, and you won't regret it. :-)
