Review: Sakasama no Patema
Sakasama no Patema (Patema Inverted)
Sakasama no Patema is about an underground world full of an elaborate tunnel system. Patema is a girl of royal blood who lives there and spends a lot of her time exploring the tunnels much to the chagrin of those trying to keep track of her. When exploring one day in the forbidden area of the tunnels, she falls into what seems to be a bottomless pit - only to wind up on the surface! Saved from falling into the sky by Eiji, a young man from the nation of Aiga, Patema learns that the surface people believe that those like her are sinners that deserve to fall into the sky. Eiji disagrees and goes against the standards of his society to befriend her despite all the odds stacked against them.
Sakasama no Patema is the story of two teenagers from very different worlds who are brought together by unexpected circumstances and still find a relationship together. Despite the different ways they have been brought up, and the different lifestyles they currently lead, a serious relationship sparks between them. Together, they learn to coexist with each other - and with society - despite all the odds.
Patema barely knew anything about Eiji's world other than what she had seen from a picture she had received as a child.
The two grow closer through the movie, as well as their feelings.
This movie is truly something to enjoy, of course the story and idea is absolutely amazing, but so is the art of the movie itself.
