Flow (2024) (U)

Winner of the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature, Flow is a breathtaking, dialogue-free adventure from Latvian filmmaker Gints Zilbalodis.

Following a solitary cat and an unlikely group of animal companions as they navigate a world transformed by flood, the film tells a moving story of survival, trust and resilience through stunning animation and evocative sound alone. Both visually mesmerising and emotionally profound, Flow is a reminder of the power of cinema to tell unforgettable stories without saying a word.

Reviews

Flow’s message of friendship and unity in the face of hardship is beautiful, and one that both children and adults in the audience will be able to appreciate

The Independent

The world of Flow, like those of the best movies, is hallucinatory and its mood hypnotic, the rolling, seductive frames adding to the illusion of some powerful subconscious truth.

The Times

A rare and thoughtful animated feature — one that opts for quiet emotion over spectacle. Its style might be too subdued for some, but it’s a gentle, sincere, and refreshingly original experience. A small film, perhaps, but one with a long-lasting ripple.
