Flow (2024) is an animated fantasy adventure film that has been widely described as an eco-fable, and it's taken the film festival world by storm.
The story, which has no dialogue, follows a cat who, after a violent flood, teams up with an unlikely group of animals, a bird, a dog, a lemur, and a capybara to pilot a boat in search of survival and dry land.
It's coming to cinemas across the motu in January.
Maggie Tweedie catches up with Latvian filmmaker, animator, and director of Flow, Gints Zilbalodis, to discuss the film's unique success.
