Flow of Being (2024)

Özet

A woman wakes up at home. She looks at her garden, mindful of the concealed rhythms of plants and animals. A moose visits her. She follows it and there begins a strange journey where the world and her flow together, until they become one. Director Unt creates a beautiful story of rebirth and emancipation. To achieve this, she uses several animation techniques for each step she makes, each metamorphosis she undergoes, from cut-outs to moving sand, from traditional 2D to point-of-view shots. The viewer can appreciate the textures, the tactile quality of the film, and, at the same time, how the main character gets freer in the frame. There’s indeed an expert lightness of touch at work here.
