84 Mins | 2024 | France, Belgium, Latvia | Director: Gints Zilbalodis | Feature | Fiction | Animation | World CinemaFlow is a stunning, universally relatable animated masterpiece for all ages.
Flow, which premiered at Cannes and went on to win four awards at Annecy, including both the Audience and Jury prizes, is a cinematic gem that transcends typical animation. Directed by Gints Zilbalodis, whose debut Away marked him as a rising talent, this is a visual and emotional triumph.
The story follows Cat, a solitary creature whose life is upended by a catastrophic flood. Seeking refuge, Cat boards a boat filled with an eclectic mix of animals. Despite their differences, they must come together to survive in this new, uncertain world.
Zilbalodis' remarkable animation style brings the story to life with naturalistic movement and an authentic soundscape using real animal sounds. The film’s visual poetry is matched by its thematic depth; while it can be seen as a fable where animals reflect human behaviours, Flow ultimately offers more than simple allegory. It’s an immersive experience that invites audiences to lose themselves in its heightened reality.
Flow is a unique, captivating cinematic experience for all ages.
