Flow 2024
The most beautiful film of 2024. What can be said about this that hasn’t already been said? It’s gorgeously and evocatively animated and most importantly it treats the audience with respect and allows for the flow of imagination.

Again; it is so beautiful and each viewing cuts a layer deeper towards the human condition, with no humans present. Clearly an incredible work of art; it will only gain more strength as time passes by.

2. Best iteration of Jet Jaguar HANDS DOWN.
