Fantastic Planet tells the story of "Oms", human-like creatures kept as domesticated pets by an alien race of blue giants called "Traags". Widely regarded as an allegorical statement on the Soviet occupation of Czechoslovakia, Fantastic Planet was five years in the making at Prague's Jiri Trnka Studios.
