A wondrous journey, through realms natural and mystical, Flow follows a courageous cat after his home is devastated by a great flood.
Teaming up with a capybara, a lemur, a bird, and a dog to navigate a boat in search of dry land, they must rely on trust, courage, and wits to survive the perils of a newly aquatic planet.
From the boundless imagination of the award-winning Gints Zilbalodis (Away) comes a thrilling animated spectacle as well as a profound meditation on the fragility of the environment and the spirit of friendship and community.
Steeped in the soaring possibilities of visual storytelling, Flow is a feast for the senses and a treasure for the heart.
