this film was about 20 to 25 years ago i dont remember much about it other than it was animated the boy was lost in space and i remember that he was on a ship that crashed on a planet and it was attacked by big flying beetles but he managed to get away. The other things i remember was that he was always talking into a radio to someone called mike i think and that his parents were searching space for him and i think someone possibly his dad was captured by aliens that looked like they were birds and tied him up with what looked like organic fleshy rope. Thats just about all i can remember apart from the fact that i dont think it had a very happy ending and it was the first time i cried at a film. If someone could help answer this i would be very grateful as this has been slowly driving me mad for most of my life and it is an itch that i would like to scratch desperatly. Thanks
