Arcadia Of My Youth

Set against the conquest of Earth by an alien empire and drawing parallels to the post WWII occupation of Japan, Captain Harlock, together with those who will become his lifelong friends, battle against tyranny no matter what the cost

As they fight the evil Illumidus Empire, the message of the film shines through: that one must stand up for one's beliefs, even when everyone else believes that slavery and suffering are preferable to the sharper pains endured by those who fight for freedom.
