Editor’s note: Ok, yes there are things that are scary… like the man kissing the goat or camel whatever the AI wanted to represent. Everything else intrigues me, those cloud-cows and the dark scenes that indicate that the story has an interesting twist… maybe soon someone will ask the AI to make the whole movie.

There was also a live-action movie that premiered in 2015.
