Synopsis
When a carefree teenager forms a forbidden friendship with a spunky princess, hostilities between their two peoples escalate, setting the stage for an exiled empress to exact her revenge and reclaim her rule.
"Delgo" takes place in the magical land of Jhamora, which is divided between two cultures: the Nohrin, winged masters of the skies, and the Lockni, who harness the mystical powers of the land. The epic scope of the film is brought to life with lush, rich environments, otherworldly creatures and a unique color palette.
The family action-adventure has messages of tolerance and cultural unity.

Production notes
The first animated feature-length film from Atlanta-based Fathom Studios, which had produced computer animation since 1991.
Anne Bancroft's final film appearance, and the final film of John Vernon.
According to Box Office Mojo, this movie had the single worst-ever North American opening for films at 2,000 or more theaters. It opened at $511,920 in 2,160 theaters, or $237 per screen. (This record was broken by 2012's live-action "Oogieloves in the Big Balloon Adventure," which opened at less than $500,000.) It was also the lowest-grossing computer-animated film ever, making $915,000 worldwide.
