Fantastic Planet

On the planet Ygam, 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. An Om woman's infant is found by Master Sinh, a key Draag leader, and his daughter Tiwa, who keeps him as a pet and receives her education using a headset that transmits knowledge into her mind; a defect in Terr's collar allows him to receive the knowledge too. He escapes into the wilderness, stealing Tiwa's headset, and with it, literacy, winning the right to read a Draag announcement about an impending purge of Oms.
