Flow is a 2024 animated film directed by Gints Zilbalodis.[1]
A cat escapes a flood that destroyed the world on a boat filled with animals of other species. He must work together with these unlikely companions to survive their new environment.[1]
In 2022, while Flow was still in development, materials from the film were presented at that year's Cartoon Movie forum in Bordeaux.[3] The film was produced with financial support from the National Film Centre of Latvia, the State Culture Capital Foundation of Latvia, the Centre national du cinéma et de l'image animée, ARTE France, Eurimages, RTBF, and the Belgian Tax Shelter.[2] Animation for the film was completed in France and Belgium.[2]
Flow was selected to premiere in the Un Certain Regard section of the 2024 Cannes Film Festival on 22 May 2024.[2] The film screened at the 2024 Annecy International Animation Film Festival, where it was awarded the Jury Award, the Audience Award, and the Gan Foundation Award for Distribution in the Feature Film category.[4]
UFO Distribution is scheduled to theatrically release the film in France on 30 October 2024.[5]
