Flow

No sooner has the little black cat rubbed the sleep out of her eyes than she is startled to discover that a huge flood is burying the old world beneath it. She barely manages to save herself on a sailing boat, where a thieving monkey, a good-natured Labrador, a sleepy capybara and a proud secretary bird gradually find refuge. It soon becomes clear that their differences are their strength and together they face the challenges of the new world.

Director Gints Zilbalodis (AWAY - FROM FINDING HAPPINESS) lets us drift gently through beautiful animal and water worlds in this magnificent story. Although FLOW refrains from excessively humanizing its protagonists, we encounter the animal adventurers in an incredibly animated way. Without spoken language, the animals convey more emotions through meowing, grunting and barking than they ever could with the help of prominent dubbing voices - a highlight for young and old alike.

The award-winning animated film amazed the audience in Cannes, won the Jury Award and the Audience Award in Annecy, among others, and took home an Oscar in the "Best Animated Film" category.
