A wondrous journey, through realms natural and mystical, FLOW follows a courageous cat after his home is devastated by a great flood. Teaming up with a capybara, a lemur, a bird, and a dog to navigate a boat in search of dry land, they must rely on trust, courage, and wits to survive the perils of a newly aquatic planet.
‘Despite being an obvious meditation on the potential for impending climate catastrophe… FLOW feels warm and delicate, like the fur of a cat who’s been lying in a sun spot all morning.’ (Little White Lies)
