'Flow', a Latvian animated film, presents a visually stunning and contemplative narrative set in a post-human world. The story follows a black cat as it navigates the ruins left by humanity, showcasing the struggle of nature and animals in a time of despair. The film utilizes no dialogue, focusing instead on the themes of survival and the formation of a 'found family'. Its aesthetics, achieved with open-source software Blender, evoke nostalgia for simpler, early gaming visuals, counteracting today's AI-driven perfection.
In Flow, the warmth springs from the found family which slowly comes into existence, as the nameless feline protagonist is forced into companionship amidst the ruins of a flooded human home.
The animated setting of Flow is a study in beautiful bleakness, showcasing animals struggling to survive in a world wrecked by humanity's worst decisions.
