The "swan/goose" is actually a secretary bird! They're native to Africa and are really cool-looking birds that you don't see much of in media. Really cool to see one here.
@@thefinkie6459 I actually think it would be a really cool experience. With good directing, beautiful atmosphere and animation, and emotionally resonant moments because of it, It could absolutely carry one through it effortlessly-similarly to a great instrumental album. It will always feel more "meditative", and when that's the right thing, it's really nice.
@@ryo-kai8587 Maybe you're right. I just can't imagine my attention span would let me get through a full movie like this. And music is different for some reason. You just appreciate an album in a completely different way to a movie.
Here I am 8 hours after watching this film and taking in what I watched. I haven’t been to a theater in 10 years to watch a movie. There are so many hidden meanings that only the viewer can interpret. Some more obvious than others, with some leaving you to make your own conclusion. I have 3 cats. I lost my baby cat Beans who was 3 years old due to a coyote attack. It was one of the rare days I let her outside unsupervised. It was the worst thing I ever experienced in my life, minus my mom passing away from cancer at 57. This film made me think about how fragile life is. I came back home and watered the tree I planted in memory of my cat Beans. It’s called an Ice Cream bean tree, and I know she’s up there on top of that mountain with my mom. They were both transported to the place we saw on that mountain top. What an amazing film.
Right? I thought it was a game that got its inspirations from Stray (post apocalyptic world) and Little Kitty, Big City (art style). Definitely still hype for this movie
I saw this magnificently beautiful film last night, cried through much of it, and couldn't move at the end. It made me feel closer to my 13-year-old son Joey who passed away a decade ago. He was an artist, loved drawing Wall-E, and I miss him terribly every second of each day. I hope he is somewhere creating new art and enjoying this extraordinary piece of work. Kudos to everyone involved in the movie, and my deepest gratitude for the thoughts and memories I experienced while watching.
If you haven't seen it I believe you (and other people reading this comment) would very likely enjoy The Wild Robot which was also released this year. Wild Robot and Flow actually have a lot in common such as adapting to nature, animals, and both being animated movies. You also mentioned Wall-E which obviously also has a robot and you'll probably like the parts of Wild Robot about sacrifices that parents make for their children that kids don't know about or aren't yet ready to appreciate.
@@emazur8394 the wild robot is such a good film! brings me to tears even thinking of a few scenes. especially the bit where the animals were in the den. iykyk
If you think this is some Disney animal adventure you couldn't be more wrong. I was drawn in from the first moment, lost in a world of true magical realism. Not a word is uttered, you're just left wondering about the unfamiliar world around you. I have been turning the film over in my head afterwards in the best way. Deep and delightful , I was very much surprised by this film
@@flagal519 I’m not sure. I saw a special screening at a film festival, if I’m not mistaken general release is early january. Hopefully it will be played in general cinemas 🤞
I am dying of cuteness overload! This is everything I've ever wanted in an animal-centric movie. Animation, ambient sounds, cute character designs, and a story that takes you on a journey.
Im so happy to see my country being able to make such a high quality film. Even if theres no dialogue, this is still one of the greatest movies ive seen in a while :) it shows that a film doesnt have to have voice actors, not even people. Its a great film, and i really recommend it.
I honestly don't think I've been excited to see a movie like I am rn in forever. The style of it really makes it fascinating and is the first thing I noticed
There's a lot that can be done with the right setting and story without words. If the film is received well internationally, it'll definitely go down in history as quite a unique success.
I adore this movie so much. Watching it felt like a therapeutic experience-very calming, almost like meditation. Minimalistic and simple, impressive and surprisingly beautiful animation - but the lack of dialogue between the animals made it more emotional, their interactions more meaningful , raw, and also "natural". And despite having no words spoken in its entire runtime , it was not boring at all. When it won the Golden Globe for Best Animated Feature, I believe it truly deserved it. Some argued that The Wild Robot was robbed, but as an independent film, it managed to stand out. And while I also loved The Wild Robot (both films are similar but also different), I just felt a deeper connection and empathy to the animal characters in Flow.
Not only my favorite film of 2024 but of all time and I’m a 52 year old film snob. FLOW just knocked out all the other auteur cinema high on my list. I will watch it a 3rd time in the movie theater next week.
unbelievable, i cant believe it's come this far. I remember the first teaser years ago. Hope this gets a worldwide release it looks genuinely astonishing. Masterpiece
@@corentincolasdesfrancs6312 Yes! Just one audio track worldwide. Even if they include closed captions for the hearing impaired, the localization of ambient audio prompts and important sound effects would be _much_ faster and cheaper than dialogue. I hope it's easy to find on release-I immediately want to see it after the trailer!
I went to see this on my birthday. I felt particularly lonely that day on account of not one of my friends showing interest in seeing this movie with me. Thankfully, the tears I shed from watching this remarkable beauty of a film hid the tears I shed from spending my birthday alone. When I got home, I searched the internet for the film's soundtrack and bought it from i-tunes right away. Easily one of the best films I've seen this year.
Don’t worry, it’s hard struggling with loneliness just know there are strangers who want to be kind to you, and those are people that would love to be your friend as well I’m sure. You’re strong for doing your best to make a positive day and being resilient despite the sadness you felt
I watched this film with a friend the first time, but enjoyed it even more the 2nd time by myself. I think fun films can be more enjoyable with others but deep ones such as Flow can be best experienced alone.
I felt so overwhelmed when the film was over… I ended up crying and I didn’t know why… the scenes near to the end are the best, I think they did the best representation of transcendence ever, the whole film is a great show of resilience, it the best animated film of the year by far
@nachy012 I agree with you this film deserves the award let's hope the oscars agree. Moana 2 felt very forced and none of the new characters were likable. Wild Robot was good but it was just a repackaged "Daisy a hen into the wild" they just replaced a chicken with a robot and a duck with a goose. FLOW definitely deserves to win best animated feature. If I had to pick a #2 Mars Express...
My goddd.. I just saw this today, and what a beautiful beautiful story! It's what you need from all the junk and sh*tty things we see on the media today. Give yourself a break and be inspired by this humble little story. They don't even needs words for you to love it, literally. It's a cat!
I just came home from seeing this and I totally agree. Don't want to open social media at all, because of all the negativity there. Just gonna savour this moment and try and fill my days with a bit more positive stuff.
Saw this at the cinema in Latvia. Truly an amazing and engaging animation film. A lot deeper than I expected that got a bit too heavy for my 7 year old. But through and through, this movie is spectacular and one where you will take a lot of meaning away about loss, friendship and survival
This looks great! Nobody will probably see this and I'm a grown a** man but shortly after moving in my wife brought her cat from her parents place. He too, was a mischievous void and even though I had known him for some time before that I consider our time together as one of the best of my life. He was such a cool cat, man, he would massage my beard, then we'd nap together, he always worried when we came home after sunset and would wait at the door and yell at us and once a week he had like these funny, crazy 2 minutes where he would be just 500 %, all in. Sadly, he passed away about half a year after moving in with us because of preexisting kidney problems, still get teary eyed when I see pictures or videos of him. Anyway, this kind of reminded me of him so thanks for that. Miss you, little dude.
By far my favourite movie of the year! I don’t think I’ve ever felt so much empathy for a character in a movie. Watching it felt like a meditative experience! It’s so so beautiful! Definitely worth seeing in the cinema ❤️
Saw a movie today. This was one of the trailers. But the audio was bugged, and there was pretty much no music, so it was just a bunch of animal noises for the most part. My entire theater especially got a chuckle at the silence being broken by the cat scream at 0:55
@@giggitymaster8799 Look Back, an anime film that had very limited showings, especially where I was, only 2 showings total from Sunday to Monday. I went to the first one, and as stated above, the trailer audio was bugged, what I didn’t mention was how much when the movie started, the audio there was bugged too, and we just had to listen to this loud buzzing noise for 25 minutes as they tried and failed to fix it, so they had to prepare another theater for us, which took another 30 minutes. Still worth the viewing.
(For all the people who haven’t watched it) I totally recommend it! It doesn’t have any words however that works really well. It felt fresh and I cried multiple times. Animation is also beautiful! I’ve never seen anything like it. I think it’s a cinematic masterpiece and you should totally see it!
It's amazing that an indie studio is able to reach a wide range of audience! Flow is truly remarkable and beautiful, yet very peaceful and fun to watch.
I'm here to tell everyone that this movie now has a good chance of winning the Best Animated Feature award for the Oscars, because it recently won the Golden Globe
Flow become the first European animated film to win best animated feature at Golden globe and if it continues very well then it can be the first ever to win oscar
IF THIS DOESNT GET THE ATTENTION IT DESERVES, I WILL EXPLODE!! THIS IS AMAZING, THE WAY EACH CHARACTER IS NOT OUT OF CHARACTER BUT INSTEAD IN CHARACTER; ANIMALS. The fact you are able to make such a project without making the animals talk at all is ABSOLUTELY UNIQUE AND MASTERPIECE.
@@danethorsonIf this is the sort of animated projects we can expect from your country, it looks like your country will be the next Japan! This movie is simply brilliant! Could you maybe give me a list of other animation studios or creators from your country I should check out?
Beware : Do not watch this movie, it will absolutely wreck your emotional well-being in minutes. Seriously, it got me crying in under 9 minutes. It's a beautiful film, every bit of scenery is gorgeous, and especially the music. It brings the whole thing together and manages to manipulate your feelings so well. The fact that there is no spoken dialogue in this also make it unique. This deserves to win the best film of the year award.
Crying, really?! Just saw it today, the trailer made it seem more interesting than I think it was. Very slow movie. Cute at best….moving emotionally eh so many better movies than this. Me and my kid were yawning and having a hard time not leaving before it ended. I wanted to love it, but I didn’t
@@mayab.8173 everyone interprets and reacts to stuff differently. Im also a giant cat lover, so that's most likely the main reason why I loved this movie.
Watched it by chance today, wish I could watch it all over again like I was my first time. Absolutely 0 dialogue and I still wanted to cry at the end ❤
It is amazing, I highly recommend it. The most beutiful heartfelt animation for a long time. There no dialog instead the visual story telling is breathtaking.
I just saw the movie a few hours ago. I only found out about it after seeing an ad on Instagram this morning. Seeing it was one of the best quick decisions I've made lately. I love cats, and this movie gets a lot right and has its own story to tell. Yes, it has shortcomings, but I like to say I enjoyed the movie!
Oh wow this looks absolutely STUNNING!!! The background visuals look like they are all straight out of paintings, the animal’s body language is perfect and simple to understand, and the animation looks so nice!!! GAAH I CANNOT WAIT TO WATCH THIS!!!
Revelation 3:20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. HEY THERE 🤗 JESUS IS CALLING YOU TODAY. Turn away from your sins, confess, forsake them and live the victorious life. God bless. Revelation 22:12-14 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
i have seen enough animated things (and non animated things, for that matter) to suspect that all the meows and other animal noises are Frank Welker XD
By the end of the trailer I was actually brought to tears. This cat looks so much like my Lucy who passed away last year. I wish she could've been there watching the movie with me. Somehow this cat's meows sound eerily similar to hers 💔
This trailer came out right when my city was flooded. I appreciate the timing, but but I think I am not emotionally ready for this film yet. I will make sure to watch it some day, though. Looks fantastic.
It's been 5 now my black cat Floyd is missing. I will keep this as the reality of what happend to him. In my mind now he is a adventurer, explorer and is very happy running around the city and exploring. Please come visit me sometimes if you can.
One of the best animated films in a while. Nobody talks in this movie but they convey their emotions perfectly well. I am looking forward for its sequel already.
Flow is too much of a masterpiece and the fable in it is too complete to need a sequel. A sequel will never be able to match up to the original and will only detract from it. 90% of sequels are rubbish. I really hope Gints does not make a sequel to Flow.
This is probably THE most beautiful animation film ever made. PLEASE distributors bring this MASTERPIECE to Brazilian Cinemas. I'll be there in Campinas,Kinoplex Dom Pedro,premiere day,first row,A13 seat. ✊🏽🐾🇧🇷💚

So your little clarification does actually make a difference, because I am in the process of starting an animated channel with a lot of talking, and I WILL say wrong things there. But there is one less thing that could turn out wrong now. =>
@@XMaster340Actually, apparent is synonymous with obvious. It means something can be plainly seen or understood. And if one knows this, it is no surprise that apparently means "to the extent that one knows or can see".
@@odyukinnaman I don’t think so. It’s about the cycle of life - the ebb and flow of all things. Most people take this movie to literally. It’s more of a parable. Regardless, it’s a 21st century masterpiece.
@@AudreyC379 I'm not sure about the animation, but the simple graphic style is a particular appeal. "Crap" maybe, but awesome, subjectively. I need to touch grass though
I dont even know what to say. I love the entire plot and the characters, its very original, inspiring, and definitely hooked me in as soon as I saw this! All I have to do is watch 10 seconds of ANY part and I'm blown away. All that, plus the style and animation too. So looking forward to this!!
The little mews had me in tears!!! Cats are such glorious, curious, rambunctious little beings....but also scared, aloof and solitary floofballs. Would love to go see this when it released in more theaters. I just adore cats....all of them....BIG and small. 😊💙😺🐾
Saw this trailer last November and recall getting that “I really want to check that out” vibe; I last felt like that when I saw the first trailer for Everything Everywhere All At Once. And then I heard it beat out all the big players for the golden globe this month… at less than 2% Inside Out 2’s budget. And they did it in BLENDER. Just from rigging 3D models for printing I know how hard it is to use that app… and they made it look AMAZING. And it grips you almost immediately; some might hate the fact that you have to pay attention thanks to the complete lack of dialogue, but it only immerses you even deeper into this surreal animal buddy movie meets Myst. It’s PG… there are a few scenes that could give younger viewers nightmares. Hell, I think I’m going to have some weird dreams tonight. It’s so nice to have a story unfold before you without being spoon fed or narrated at. If it doesn’t win the Oscar (or worse, is snubbed) it’s because Hollywood is scared. And should be.
Just saw the full movie of this at the Ottawa Film Festival- I STRONGLY RECOMMEND. Dear god it's absolutely beautiful and i almost cried multiple times The environment design is beautiful, the music is amazing and the animal behaviors are so well animated (This is coming from an animation student so im biased but holy HELL GO WATCH THIS.)
I watched this movie week ago I felt so heartwarming that how the animals together can survive or make their own family I dont know why the drastic water level was increasing and why were so many cat status as developers didn't mentioned but the emotions were fantastic and graphics was also good ❤
The incredible thing about this presentation, is that all animals of almost every species has been observed to be truly altruistic without any expectation of return in nature. Especially from species to another species. Thousands of examples have been filmed. It happens all the time, we're just not always paying attention. Also, remember this when the floods come.
goden globes are the poor mans oscars. The Wild Robot deserves to win best oscar. maybe this is a bone that got thrown. unless garbage inside out 2 robs it. 0:00

By far my favourite movie of the year! I don’t think I’ve ever felt so much empathy for a character in a movie. Watching it felt like a meditative experience! It’s so so beautiful! Definitely worth seeing in the cinema ❤️
This movie is a masterpiece!
A movie doesn't need a fancy dialogue to win an award.
Saw a movie today. This was one of the trailers. But the audio was bugged, and there was pretty much no music, so it was just a bunch of animal noises for the most part. My entire theater especially got a chuckle at the silence being broken by the cat scream at 0:55
Honestly that sounds like such an interesting experience
@@SkyFlame27 it really was
That's hilarious
What movie was it
@@giggitymaster8799 Look Back, an anime film that had very limited showings, especially where I was, only 2 showings total from Sunday to Monday. I went to the first one, and as stated above, the trailer audio was bugged, what I didn’t mention was how much when the movie started, the audio there was bugged too, and we just had to listen to this loud buzzing noise for 25 minutes as they tried and failed to fix it, so they had to prepare another theater for us, which took another 30 minutes. Still worth the viewing.
(For all the people who haven’t watched it) I totally recommend it! It doesn’t have any words however that works really well. It felt fresh and I cried multiple times. Animation is also beautiful! I’ve never seen anything like it. I think it’s a cinematic masterpiece and you should totally see it!
MY FAV MOVIE IN A LONG TIME.
Flow becomes the first European animated film to win the golden globe for best animated feature
You have said this many times
This movie need an Oscar
I watched it two days ago, it's one of the best animation films i've seen in years. Prepare tissues!
Where can I watch it?

A masterpiece full of beauty, hope and majestic sadness. World of humans is over, but humanity is on.
So well said ❤
I really like that the animals don't actually talk, like Stray
This was released less than a week after my birthday :3
Ikr this immediately made me think of Stray

It's amazing that an indie studio is able to reach a wide range of audience! Flow is truly remarkable and beautiful, yet very peaceful and fun to watch.
Best Animated Feature and International Feature nods at Oscars 2025. I'm so happy for this movie!!!
this looks stunning! hopefully this gets a worldwide release
It's in the cinemas all over America and Europe.
I'm here to tell everyone that this movie now has a good chance of winning the Best Animated Feature award for the Oscars, because it recently won the Golden Globe
Flow become the first European animated film to win best animated feature at Golden globe and if it continues very well then it can be the first ever to win oscar
My hopes are on Vengeance Most Fowl. My mum and I loved it.
@ΓΕΏΡΓΙΟΣ-ι8ν First indie movie to win the category as well! :) Only 3.8M budget.
if it does then The Wild Robot will get robbed. they are both good. but wild robot is better
@@dizzlegrizzle1919no
Just saw this. Amazing experience. It's more then a movie. Says so much, without a single human speaking. Phenomenal.
IF THIS DOESNT GET THE ATTENTION IT DESERVES, I WILL EXPLODE!!
THIS IS AMAZING, THE WAY EACH CHARACTER IS NOT OUT OF CHARACTER BUT INSTEAD IN CHARACTER; ANIMALS. The fact you are able to make such a project without making the animals talk at all is ABSOLUTELY UNIQUE AND MASTERPIECE.
I am very proud that idea and creator cames from my country. Loved it
My sentiments exactly!
@@danethorsonIf this is the sort of animated projects we can expect from your country, it looks like your country will be the next Japan! This movie is simply brilliant!
Could you maybe give me a list of other animation studios or creators from your country I should check out?
Well, it recently won the Golden Globe Award for Best Animated Picture. It might stand a chance at the Oscars.
Normally I hate all caps.
For this movie? The judges will allow. 🙇🏻♂️
...we don't have anything just a soul and time. Thanks for the meaning without words. LOVE IT. Paldies.
Definitely on my Have to see list. No dialogue only the music. Hope this becomes a hit and an Oscar winner.
OMG! And no voice actors, so it is as real as it could be! Thank you!
Easily the best animated movie of the year, and one of the most unique theatrical experiences I've ever had.
Beware : Do not watch this movie, it will absolutely wreck your emotional well-being in minutes.
Seriously, it got me crying in under 9 minutes.
It's a beautiful film, every bit of scenery is gorgeous, and especially the music. It brings the whole thing together and manages to manipulate your feelings so well. The fact that there is no spoken dialogue in this also make it unique.
This deserves to win the best film of the year award.
Not reading allat lil bro😪✌️
Crying, really?! Just saw it today, the trailer made it seem more interesting than I think it was. Very slow movie. Cute at best….moving emotionally eh so many better movies than this. Me and my kid were yawning and having a hard time not leaving before it ended. I wanted to love it, but I didn’t
@@mayab.8173 everyone interprets and reacts to stuff differently. Im also a giant cat lover, so that's most likely the main reason why I loved this movie.
A little update - the movie has received a "Golden Globe" award for the best animated movie!
@@mayab.8173Go back to watching braindead soulless Hollywood junk.
One of the best movies that I've seen in decades! Flawless and beautifully astonishing!
💯
Watched it by chance today, wish I could watch it all over again like I was my first time.
Absolutely 0 dialogue and I still wanted to cry at the end ❤
I did cry. STILL WATCHED IT AGAIN.
Saw it in the cinema the other day and wow, worth it. Was so beautiful to simply experience it all with no words needed.
It is amazing, I highly recommend it. The most beutiful heartfelt animation for a long time. There no dialog instead the visual story telling is breathtaking.
I just saw the movie a few hours ago. I only found out about it after seeing an ad on Instagram this morning. Seeing it was one of the best quick decisions I've made lately. I love cats, and this movie gets a lot right and has its own story to tell. Yes, it has shortcomings, but I like to say I enjoyed the movie!
Very heartfelt movie which has been awaited for decades.
Oh wow this looks absolutely STUNNING!!! The background visuals look like they are all straight out of paintings, the animal’s body language is perfect and simple to understand, and the animation looks so nice!!! GAAH I CANNOT WAIT TO WATCH THIS!!!
Theres No Voice Actors Thats amazing
Revelation 3:20
Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

@@JesusPlsSaveMecross fangirls when they see a flood:
i have seen enough animated things (and non animated things, for that matter) to suspect that all the meows and other animal noises are Frank Welker XD
No dialogue, just amazing cinematography & masterpiece
By the end of the trailer I was actually brought to tears. This cat looks so much like my Lucy who passed away last year. I wish she could've been there watching the movie with me. Somehow this cat's meows sound eerily similar to hers 💔
This movie was so good it had me STRESSING over the safety of a bunch of fictional animals. 10/10
Lol
Just watched - no words, but such an amazing film. Please please PLEASE go watch it with your family!!
This trailer came out right when my city was flooded.
I appreciate the timing, but but I think I am not emotionally ready for this film yet. I will make sure to watch it some day, though. Looks fantastic.
aww i hope you’re okay!
too busy helping israel to send help to u
It's been 5 now my black cat Floyd is missing. I will keep this as the reality of what happend to him. In my mind now he is a adventurer, explorer and is very happy running around the city and exploring. Please come visit me sometimes if you can.
Big Respect for the Secretary Bird, At first I was confused what happened to him but after thinking more deeply, Damn. That touched me.
What you think has happened to bird?
@@adriankoroljov6830 I think he died and got taken to the next realm of existence. It’s a very powerful scene.
One of the best animated films in a while. Nobody talks in this movie but they convey their emotions perfectly well. I am looking forward for its sequel already.
There's a sequel?
@@chandramay9553 we already knew that because there's a lot of question on that movie and the way it ends its perfect to make a sequel
Flow is too much of a masterpiece and the fable in it is too complete to need a sequel. A sequel will never be able to match up to the original and will only detract from it. 90% of sequels are rubbish. I really hope Gints does not make a sequel to Flow.
Love this movie, funny, heart warming and cute. Not a single word but 10/10
Latvians can do anything. THEIR song festivals are amazing
But have you seen the movie?
@dreamthedream8929 no it is in a theater far away was it any good?

This is probably THE most beautiful animation film ever made.

Amazing!!! Please release thisssss, i cannotttt wait to watch this!!!
Apparently this film was completly rendered in EVEE
Then I guess this'll be the next Blender splash screen.
Why is it apparent, that is is specifically rendered in Eevee?
@@Marc_Fuchs_1985 It's not apparent. "Apparently" means "They say that..."
@@XMaster340 Thank you for pointing this out. Even though I am advanced with it, English is not my first language and there are still little hiccups in my understanding of things. So your little clarification does actually make a difference, because I am in the process of starting an animated channel with a lot of talking, and I WILL say wrong things there. But there is one less thing that could turn out wrong now. =>
@@XMaster340Actually, apparent is synonymous with obvious. It means something can be plainly seen or understood. And if one knows this, it is no surprise that apparently means "to the extent that one knows or can see".
Thank you Penguinz0, now I'll go watch this movie
I also came here after that video
Yess
Same
This movie is balm for the soul. A must see for all humans.
This is the most beautiful movie I’ve ever seen
💯
Why do I feel like crying just from watching this trailer😭
Oh waith for the whole thing, I left theater sobbing
This was excellent, I sobbed start to finish. Go see it. The kids in the theater didn't even talk.
But the ending kinda....sad
@@odyukinnaman I don’t think so. It’s about the cycle of life - the ebb and flow of all things. Most people take this movie to literally. It’s more of a parable. Regardless, it’s a 21st century masterpiece.
Stunning! Can't wait to watch it!
My sympathies to the animators who spent so much effort on this only to have it uploaded in 1080p
Hey that's totally fine. It still looks awesome, and it'll probably be better quality video for the actual movie.
It isn't. Decent movie but the animation itself is crap. @@eglol
@@AudreyC379 I'm not sure about the animation, but the simple graphic style is a particular appeal. "Crap" maybe, but awesome, subjectively.
I need to touch grass though
I dont even know what to say. I love the entire plot and the characters, its very original, inspiring, and definitely hooked me in as soon as I saw this! All I have to do is watch 10 seconds of ANY part and I'm blown away. All that, plus the style and animation too. So looking forward to this!!
This is VISUALLY STUNNING, and I love cats. 10/10
Amazing movie. I wish I could delete it from my mind so I could watch it again and be mesmerized AGAIN. Brilliant ❤
Saw it last night. It's a masterpiece. Jaw droppingly beautiful.
Both me and my daughter cried through this. It's an excellent motion picture which carries so much emotion.
Saw this last night with the kids. A once in a generation masterpiece. See it in a theater!
💯
This is one of the best animated films I have seen in years
The little mews had me in tears!!!
Cats are such glorious, curious, rambunctious little beings....but also scared, aloof and solitary floofballs.
Would love to go see this when it released in more theaters.
I just adore cats....all of them....BIG and small.
😊💙😺🐾
This movie manages to make you care about all the characters, even if the cat is the main protagonist.
I watched this movie at a film festival and let me say if you can watch in a theatre it’s a TREAT! Such a beautiful and profound film 🐈⬛
Every second is soo beautiful. No dull moments.
Saw this trailer last November and recall getting that “I really want to check that out” vibe; I last felt like that when I saw the first trailer for Everything Everywhere All At Once.
And then I heard it beat out all the big players for the golden globe this month… at less than 2% Inside Out 2’s budget.
And they did it in BLENDER. Just from rigging 3D models for printing I know how hard it is to use that app… and they made it look AMAZING.
And it grips you almost immediately; some might hate the fact that you have to pay attention thanks to the complete lack of dialogue, but it only immerses you even deeper into this surreal animal buddy movie meets Myst.
It’s PG… there are a few scenes that could give younger viewers nightmares. Hell, I think I’m going to have some weird dreams tonight.
It’s so nice to have a story unfold before you without being spoon fed or narrated at. If it doesn’t win the Oscar (or worse, is snubbed) it’s because Hollywood is scared.
And should be.
i am so incredibally proud that this is from latvia
take this L and put it where it bellongs 🇱🇻
@@zents1989 what did lativa do to you
The best thing about this masterpiece is that it is made on a free open source software called blender
Just saw the full movie of this at the Ottawa Film Festival- I STRONGLY RECOMMEND. Dear god it's absolutely beautiful and i almost cried multiple times
The environment design is beautiful, the music is amazing and the animal behaviors are so well animated
(This is coming from an animation student so im biased but holy HELL GO WATCH THIS.)
Thoroughly loved the movie. Absolutely mesmerizing and cried at the end 😢❤
You guys should be contracted for a Warriors movie, because this is beautiful.
oh shit Warriors fan
Ah hell yeah
With this kind of style? That would be absolutely amazing!
For animal lovers, this by far one of my favorite animated movie ever watch. This movie should be nominated for Oscar 2025.
I watched this movie week ago
I felt so heartwarming that how the animals together can survive or make their own family
I dont know why the drastic water level was increasing and why were so many cat status as developers didn't mentioned but the emotions were fantastic and graphics was also good ❤
This movie deserves an Oscar!
yes for sure
The incredible thing about this presentation, is that all animals of almost every species has been observed to be truly altruistic without any expectation of return in nature. Especially from species to another species. Thousands of examples have been filmed. It happens all the time, we're just not always paying attention. Also, remember this when the floods come.
Hands down one of the best movies I have ever watched 🎉🎉
This movie just won a golden globe
