Promare

Promare is a 2019 Japanese animated science fiction action film produced by Trigger and XFlag. The story is set in a future where a portion of humanity has developed the ability to produce and control fire, known as "Burnish." These individuals are often persecuted and live in fear of being discovered. The film follows Galo Thymos, a new recruit in the firefighting group Burning Rescue, which is tasked with combating rogue Burnish.

During a mission to apprehend a group of radical Burnish called the "Mad Burnish," Galo encounters Lio Fotia, their charismatic leader. A confrontation ensues, but Lio reveals his group's intentions are not malicious, but rather a desperate plea for understanding and an end to their oppression. Galo, initially driven by duty, begins to question his orders and the true nature of the conflict.

The plot thickens as it's revealed that the planet's core is slowly extinguishing, and the Burnish are somehow connected to this phenomenon. Galo and Lio must overcome their differences and work together to uncover the truth behind the Burnish's powers and the planet's impending doom. The film is known for its vibrant, distinctive visual style, characterized by bold colors, dynamic animation, and a high-energy presentation, all hallmarks of Studio Trigger's work. It explores themes of prejudice, environmentalism, and the importance of understanding. Promare was directed by Hiroyuki Imaishi and written by Kazuki Nakashima.
