Heads up 👀 Flow (new animated movie) is now up to watch! 🎬
Story: A grumpy cat 🐱 who loves being alone loses its home in a huge flood 🌊… and ends up stuck on a boat 🚤 with a bunch of random animals 🐰🦆🐶. They’ve gotta work together (even though cat’s not too happy about it 😸).
It’s a chill, wordless film with amazing animation ✨ and some nice themes about teamwork + finding common ground. Good one if you’re into unique animation or want something different for a family movie night 🍿.
Flow has won several major awards, including the Academy Award (Oscar) for Best Animated Feature at the 97th Academy Awards, a historic first for Latvia, and beat out major studios like Disney and DreamWorks. It also won the Golden Globe for Best Animated Feature, the LUX Audience Award from the European Parliament, the Grand Prize at Animation Is Film Festival, and the César Award for Best Animated Film.
