Produced by Tim Burton and Timur Bekmambetov, 9 is an adaptation of the Academy Award-nominated 2005 eponymous short animated film directed by Shane Acker.

After an apocalyptic war between humans and machines, the world is left destroyed and lifeless. As 9 makes his way out into the dark and scary city, he finds that there are others like him. He tries to halt the wiping out the rest of his eight fellow rag dolls.

“Every effort to expand the range of feature-length animation beyond the confines of cautious family fare is to be welcomed, and budding techno and fantasy geeks are likely to be intrigued and enthralled.” The New York Times
