Animated film/ LV, FR, BE 2024/ Director: Gints Zilbalodis/ 84 min. original version without dialogues

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. They convey more emotions through meowing, grunting and barking than they ever could with the help of prominent dubbing voices. FLOW is a highlight for young and old alike!

FLOW has been awarded the Oscar® 2025 in the important Best Animated Feature category and was also nominated in the Best International Feature category. This is outstanding recognition for the Latvian phenomenon: the extraordinary animated film has already amazed audiences in Cannes and gone on to win numerous awards, including four prizes in Annecy, the New York Critics Circle Award of Animation, the European Film Award, the Golden Globe - Best Film / Animation, and the Prix Lumières. FLOW has received over 70 awards to date. In France, the Austrian-French-Belgian co-production has so far attracted 600,000 viewers, while in Mexico the film has already attracted over 1.5 million viewers.
