Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Renaissance is a 2006 French CGI animated science-fiction film featuring the voices of Daniel Craig, Ian Holm, Jonathan Pryce, and Catherine McCormack. Set in Paris in 2054, it follows inspector Barthelmey Karas (Craig) as he investigates the kidnapping of a brilliant young researcher named Ilona from the resident Mega-Corp, Avalon.While the plot is relatively by-the-numbers, what makes this film stand out are the visuals. With one or two momentary exceptions, the entire film is animated in pure black and pure white, which makes for some seriously stunning sequences.

Bittersweet Ending: Ilona, Muller, and possibly Karas are dead, and Dellenbach gets away with murder as well as kidnapping and torturing a cop, but Karas has kept the secret of immortality out of their hands.

All-CGI Cartoon: As noted above, the film is all CGI but lit almost entirely in black and white.

comment
Dark and Troubled Past: Karas used to be in a gang along with Farfalla, and at one point, the two of them ended up captured by a rival group. Karas helped Farfalla escape, but didn't manage to make it out himself. What followed was evidently quite traumatic and put Karas on the path to becoming a cop.
