Flow (U) – Family Friendly and Bringing in Baby
All tickets £4.50. Free for babies under 12 months (no ticket required).
Dir. Gints Zilbalodis, Latvia/Belgium, 2024, 85 minutes.
Winner of Best Animated Feature at the Oscars this year, Flow is an instant classic for the whole family to enjoy.
An awe-inspiring animated odyssey, this wondrous dialogue-free Oscar winner follows the survival efforts of a cat and some other animal friends banding together in the wake of an almighty flood. Voyaging through the flow of the flooded forest and city, their ark is soon boarded by an excitable golden retriever, a hoarding lemur and a proudly independent secretarybird. the animals band together as they encounter both peril and beauty across the breathtaking journey.
As emotionally profound as it is visually mesmerising, this dialogue-free voyage explores powerful themes of the environment, displacement and the culturally enriching experience of co-existence through the gorgeously realised perspective of a found family of animals.
