A little fox. A flying saucer. An alien world. A journey that will change his life forever. Abducted from his home and taken across the cosmos, Rex is paired with a mysterious being named Aven and forced to face a series of extraordinary trials. As they struggle to survive the unknown, an unexpected bond begins to form between them—one that will ultimately demand courage, sacrifice, and love. The Saga of Rex is written and directed and animated by animation filmmaker Michel Gagné, making his first feature film after many shorts. He has also worked on VFX and animation on many projects including The Incredibles, Ratatouille, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, Piece by Piece, Ray Gunn, and many others. Made entirely independent by Gagné himself. Gagné International is managing the film’s global sales. (courtesy First Showing)
