Patema
パテマ
Patema is a curious blue-haired young girl living in a dingy underground future world where residents wear protective suits and negotiate “danger zones.” Exploring one such area, she encounters a Darth Vader-like figure who walks her world upside down.
Startled, she falls into the “other” world, the Earth as we know it. Now she is upside down, an “invert” who’s at risk for “falling” up into the sky. This world is under totalitarian rule reminiscent of Orwell’s 1984, where all difference is punished and obedience and conformity are required.
