Following the success of the first feature film outing (which achieved worldwide sales) and TV series (sold in over 20 territories), family entertainment company Caligari Film announces it has completed production of English-language animated feature Knight Rusty 2 – Full Metal Racket.
According to the producer, the humorous, action-fueled project has received very positive criticism for its blend of kid-friendly entertainment and appeal to parents. The sequel’s three-year production involved more than 300 artists and professionals worldwide, and over 15,000 hours of rendering were logged to complete the 85 minute 2D/3D adventure.
Synopsis:
Scrapland is going broke. As over half the country’s budget pays for the upkeep of King Leadfoot and his Knights, the downsizing options are limited and obvious. Forced into early retirement, Knight Rusty is looking for a new job. In the basement of his Castle he meets a ghost who shows him the unfinished work of his father, an inventor in Scrapland’s former days. When power crazed police chiefs take over the country, Rusty finally accepts that he must do what he was created for: to protect Scrapland and his father’s vision!
Caligari Film is a leader in the German independent animation market, producing film and TV properties including Knight Rusty, Coconut the Little Dragon and Moonbeam Bear.
