Denmark's official submission to 2022's Oscars is an amazing heartbreaking animated documentary. Its real story is extraordinary, sad, powerful and so moving. It's written brilliantly, with many deep lines. The animation is beautiful and original. I hope this film will get Oscar nominations for Best International Feature Film, Best Animation and Best Documentary.

The partially animated documentary-story of a man who secretly escaped Afghanistan as a child.

I enjoyed this film more than I thought it would, and I am so happy to find that animation can succeed in this form of storytelling. Though the animation can be quite limited at times, it is more than adept and able to communicate the raw emotion behind many of the stories, maybe even more so than it's real-life counterparts could.

It is a film almost everyone should watch - just to see life through another person's eyes.

Flee has become especially prescient in recent weeks. However, despite the incredible story, this just didn't hit me the way it seems to have hit others. I think the animation (though attractive) might have hurt its effectiveness for me. I'll accept that I may be wrong about that; I seem to be alone in that opinion.
