Les Maitres Du Temps (Time Masters) - Chi Mai Edit

So I got back last week to be met with the sad news that one of my favourite illustrators, Moebius aka Jean Giraud, had died aged 83. 

The his artwork helped shape films such as Alien, Tron and The Fifth Element, I was first introduced to his work by a film called Time Masters, a collaboration with director Rene Laloux, which I saw as a child and has haunted me ever since with it’s unique vision. 

This edit of the film is cut to Chi Mai by Ennio Morricone, and although it wasn’t used in the film, I think it’s a great tribute to the visionary artist. Rest in peace, Moebius.
