A massive flood engulfs the refuge of a solitary cat. About to be swallowed by the waters, he jumps into a makeshift boat, which he will share with others in the same situation. Surviving together will be a challenge.

Zilbalodis, whose film Away won top prize at the Festival in 2019, has masterfully crafted a film without words, with an apocalyptic atmosphere, and rich in adventures. A call for brotherly love towards those who are different, this poetic odyssey unfolds in majestic settings and through the solidarity that develops between animals. The “future of animation”, according to Guillermo del Toro.
