Overview
On the planet Ygam, the Draags, extremely technologically and spiritually advanced blue humanoids, consider the tiny Oms, human beings descendants of Terra’s inhabitants, as ignorant animals. Those who live in slavery are treated as simple pets and used to entertain Draag children; those who live hidden in the hostile wilderness of the planet are periodically hunted and ruthlessly slaughtered as if they were vermin.

Viewing Notes
The number of times I watched portions of this movie on Night Flight as a teenager! I’ve been wanting to get the Criterion of this for ages, so I finally pulled the trigger on it during the most recent flash sale. So interesting to revisit this after so many years. I don’t recall for sure but I believe Night Flight played the original French language, subtitled version back in the day as well.
