After the fifth Great War, crime figures are sky rocketing. The normal law enforcement agency isn’t adequate anymore. People turn to voodoo to create socalled Xenobites. Xenobites are the risen dead who confront crime in a deadly and ruthless way. Icarus van Clader is a private detective hired to find a mysterious tape. This tape pits him straight against the Yakuza and the Xenobites.
Shot in black and white, Michael Fredianelli presents the viewer a futuristic “film noir”. Xenobites can be compared as a combination between Blade Runner and Sin City. Michael Fredianelli takes on the lead of Icarus in Xenobites rather successfully.
