After its home is destroyed by a cataclysmic flood, a solitary black cat sets off on a journey to find dry land. Along the way, Cat meets several other animals in the same predicament – a capybara, a lemur, a bird, and a dog – and the little group bands together to continue the quest. They find a small boat, and, by learning the importance of courage, trust, and reliance on one another, they attempt to navigate the uncharted waters of an inundated world and, if lucky, find a new place to call home.
Already selected to compete for an Academy Award for Best International Feature Film, Latvian director Gint Zilbalodis’s Flow is being called one of the best (non-Disney) animated films of recent memory.
