What happens

Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem (インターステラ5555, Intāsutera Fō Faibu; "Four Five") is a 2003 anime musical science fiction film. It was written by Daft Punk and Cédric Hervet, produced by Toei Animation, directed by Kazuhisa Takenouchi, and supervised by Leiji Matsumoto. The film tells the story of the abduction and rescue of an extraterrestrial pop band. The film also serves as a visual companion to Discovery, Daft Punk's second studio album. The film has no dialogue, but instead consists of the entirety of Discovery with minimal sound effects. Thus, it turns Discovery into a concept album. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
