A wondrous journey, through realms natural and mystical, FLOW follows a courageous cat after his home is devastated by a great flood. Teaming up with a capybara, a lemur, a bird, and a dog to navigate a boat in search of dry land, they must rely on trust, courage, and wits to survive the perils of a newly aquatic planet. From the boundless imagination of the award-winning Gints Zilbalodis (AWAY) comes a thrilling animated spectacle as well as a profound meditation on the fragility of the environment and the spirit of friendship and community. Steeped in the soaring possibilities of visual storytelling, FLOW is a feast for the senses and a treasure for the heart. The Montclair Film Festival is proud to present FLOW as our 2024 Family Centerpiece film.

Please Note:

Montclair Film believes everyone should be able to enjoy and share in the power of visual storytelling. We are offering a special Sensory Friendly showing of FLOW on Saturday, October 26, 12:45pm, Clairidge 2 for audiences of all ages.

Storytelling through film is an impactful art form which sparks imagination, elicits emotion, provokes thought and celebrates humanity, while simultaneously providing engaging entertainment. For a majority of us, going to the movies is both magical and memorable. However, for many families living with autism and special needs, the traditional cinematic experience is far too overwhelming and therefore, not an option.

Sensory Friendly screenings adapt conditions to better serve the unique sensory sensitivities of a special needs audience. This includes lowering sound, raising house lights, and giving these young people the freedom to move, speak, and view films in a welcoming, judgment-free environment.

All are welcome.
