Året er 80 AMM (Anno Mickey Mouse), og problemerne ulmer på Planet X. De skurkagtige kattesyndikater er organiserede, tungt bevæbnede og klar til at skyde hul i våbenhvilen med musene. Men musene har et kort oppe i ærmet – den hemmelige agent Nick Grabowski. ‘Cat City’ er en anarkistisk perle fra den anden side af jerntæppet. En parodi på dystopisk sci-fi og vestlige spionthrillers, der blev et vaskeægte kulthit i Sovjetunionen. Præsenteret i en nyrestaureret kopi.
Naples in a near future. This version of Cinderella finds our heroine living in the rusted hull of a high-tech ship, where recordings of old inhabitants are projected as ghostly holograms. Her days are spend dodging sadistic stepsiblings, an evil stepmother and said stepmother’s drug lord lover in this riff on the classic tale. Full of pointed references to the history of Naples, organized crime, and the abundant corruption in Italy, ‘Cinderella the Cat’ is an imaginative and jazzy sci-noir.
Denne version af Askepot finder sted i et retro-futuristisk Napoli, hvor vores heltinde bor i det rustne skrog af et high-tech skib, hvor optagelser af gamle gæster projiceres som spøgelsesagtige hologrammer. Her bruger hun dagene på at undgå sine sadistiske stedsøskende, onde stedmor og dennes elsker/narkobaron. Filmen er fuld af referencer til Napolis historie, Italiens omfattende korruption og organiseret kriminalitet. En fantasifuld og jazzet sci-noir.
