Plaion Avalon - Play for Your Life

Ash is addicted to Avalon. Like many others, she immerses herself every day in the virtual world of the notorious, illegal computer game. She is one of the toughest professional players, as she never gives up until the last opponent has been eliminated on the simulated battlefields. However, Ash has never ventured into one particular level: the "Special Class A Level" of Avalon is only open to a small, elite group of players. Like her friend Murphy, who has recently been lying in a vegetative state in a coma. Ash cannot believe that his condition could have anything to do with Avalon. When she finally gets the chance to level up to A herself, she doesn't hesitate for a second. But Ash has no idea that she is playing the riskiest game of her life. No one has ever returned from Level A.

Mamoru Oshii, the mastermind behind great anime classics like Ghost in the Shell and Patlabor, created Avalon, a fascinatingly styled science fiction blockbuster. With an international team, Oshii developed a surreal game aesthetic that captivates the viewer.
