La Cité des Enfants Perdus
Fantasy somewhere between the Pied Piper and Roald Dahl’s the BFG, from
Amelie and
Delicatessen director Jean-Pierre Jeunet. The main protaganist Krank is aging prematurely because he lacks the ability to dream, so he kidnaps children from a nearby town and takes them to his abandoned oil rig in the sea, where he steals their dreams.
