Language: English

Æon Flux /ˌiːɒn ˈflʌks/ is an American avant-garde science fiction adventure animated television series that aired on MTV from November 30, 1991, until October 10, 1995, with film, comic book, and video game adaptations following thereafter. It premiered on MTV's Liquid Television experimental animation show, as a six-part serial of short films, followed in 1992 by five individual short episodes. In 1995, a season of ten half-hour episodes aired as a stand-alone series. Æon Flux was created by American animator Peter Chung. Each Episode plots have elements of social science fiction, biopunk, allegory, dystopian fiction, spy fiction, psychological drama, postmodern visual, psychedelic imagery and Gnostic symbolism.

PLOT:

Æon Flux is set in a surreal German Expressionist style futuristic universe. The setting comprises a bizarre dystopia populated by mutant creatures, clones, and robots set within the two separated border wall cities of Monica and Bregna. The title character is a tall, sexy, dominatrix scantily-clad secret agent from the city of Monica, skilled in espionage, assassination and acrobatics. Her mission is to infiltrate and destroy the strongholds of the city of Bregna /ˈbrɛnjə/, which is led by her sworn enemy, and sometimes lover, Trevor Goodchild, the technocratic dictator of Bregna, whose citizens are called Breens. The two cities engage in a futile never ending war for ideological supremacy; while Monica represents a dynamic nihilistic anarchist society where rules do not exist, Bregna embodies a centralized scientific planned Orwellian police state. The names of their respective characters reflect this: Flux as the self-directed agent from Monica and Goodchild as the self-appointed leader of Bregna. Themes of tragic/forbidden love run through out the series as Trevor has everything but what he truly wants, Æon, and Æon can accomplish anything she wants except killing Trevor.

Def reccomend if you like strange and intriguing animation, its visual storytelling is on another level, you can't give it, can't even buy it, and you just don't get it.
