The Latvian National Film Center said that the French company Sacrebleu Productions is one of the three co-production partners, and it was in France that the international success of “Flow” began, with its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival in May 2024 and four prizes at the Annecy Film Festival in June.

Two French filmmakers were competing alongside each other in this category – Michel Hazanavitch’s animation “The Most Precious of Cargoes” and Claude Barras’ animation “Savages”, which was also nominated for a European Film Academy Award but lost out to Latvia’s “Flow” at the ceremony.
