Icarus [Blu-ray]

Icarus Blu-ray is a beautifully animated fantasy adventure that reimagines one of Greek mythology's most enduring legends through the eyes of a young boy. Directed by former Pixar animator Carlo Vogele in his feature directorial debut, this visually stunning film blends myth, friendship and adventure into an imaginative family tale.

On the island of Crete, the curious young Icarus, son of the legendary inventor Daedalus, discovers a hidden secret beneath the Palace of Knossos—a lonely child with the head of a bull named Asterion. Forming a forbidden friendship with the young Minotaur, Icarus vows to protect him when fate condemns Asterion to the Labyrinth. As gods and kings shape the destiny of mortals, Icarus must find the courage to challenge a story that seems already written.

Inspired by the timeless myths of ancient Greece, Icarus offers breathtaking animation, memorable characters and a fresh perspective on one of mythology's greatest legends.
