The Japanese animated film Patema Inverted was released, gaining international attention for its unique story and animation style.
Two distinct civilizations develop with opposite gravity directions, separated by a barrier.
Patema explores the forbidden areas outside her underground community, where gravity is inverted for her.
During one of her explorations, Patema falls into the surface world, where gravity pulls in the opposite direction of her own world.
Patema encounters Age, a surface boy who perceives her inverted orientation, leading to mutual understanding.
They evade capture by the government which seeks to suppress knowledge of gravity inversion and maintain control.
Patema and Age discover that the surface government has been lying about the dangers of the underground world and manipulating facts about gravity inversion.
Patema and Age work together to bridge their two worlds and understand the true nature of gravity inversion.
The barrier separating the inverted gravity zones collapses, allowing communication and coexistence possibilities.
