"Away" is a visually stunning animated film

Gints Zilbalodis created the animated film "Away" over 3.5 years in his home studio. The film features a silent boy on a mysterious island, encountering friendly animals and a dark monster. The story unfolds through various adventures, with unique visuals combining simple shapes and realistic landscapes. The film's lack of dialogue and magical elements evoke comparisons to Studio Ghibli classics. "Away" is being rereleased in cinemas on March 17, 2025, and is also available for rent or purchase on streaming platforms.
