Recent Watch: Flow (2024)

Movie poster of the film Flow

First time I watched 'Flow' was at the cinema, but upon second viewing I can now confirm that the internet was right about the effect that the film has on cats. Can also confirm that it remains a masterclass in visual storytelling, and a beautiful and tender tale about survival and found family that evokes thoughts and emotions without the use of any dialogue.

Such an incredible achievement by a small team, all done with open source software. People keep repeating how impressive it is that it was created in Blender for good reason, because it is legitimately one of the most stunning animated films that have been released in the recent years. 100% worth every bit of praise it has received.

 

Two pictures showing my calico cat Carrie standing in front of the TV which is showing two scenes from the film Flow, depicting a black cat running in a field full of greenery, on the top picture the cat is visible from a distance while there is a lake as the main focus, on the bottom picture the same cat is running away from a pack of dogs that are running behind it.
