In a neo-futuristic age, Tokyo has turned into the world's largest "jungle-polis" that absorbs carbon dioxide, by-product of runaway global warming. The tower city called Atlas houses the rich and privileged, and is the object of yearning of all those who are not allowed to enter, struggling in the squalor of the surrounding jungle. But Atlas, the towering achievement of human ingenuity, was founded on dark ancient secrets which cause a sudden whirl of events. Festooned by colourful characters such as a riotous teenage girl, a child genius, a juvenile princess, a drag queen, a female doctor, an army major, and an elderly gentleman and lady, Shangri-La's hard-core world view plays out as an action saga. Note: A striking vision of Earth's future from some of Japan's foremost creative talents, this is a tale of greed and division vs. bravery and the human spirit.
