An eerie, dreamy animated film which showcase the extra amazing talent of a single person, Gints Zilbalodis. If you are a movie maniac and always trying to discover something new and different, this is a must watch.

Away is a calm, meditative and beautiful animated film with an impressive atmosphere.

Without even speaking 1 word, the film says so much and leaves a lot of scope for your own interpretations. In addition, there is the wonderful art style with super minimalistic animations that give the film a unique atmosphere. The score is just as grandiose as it is beautiful, and underlines the breathtaking pictures in a masterful way.

The amazing thing is that the Latvian director Gints Zilbalodus made the film completely by himself.

This is a very, very good movie. I didn't want to watch it at first because it's animated and there's no real dialogue. It didn't take more than 5 minutes for me to get sucked in, and I'm glad I did. This movie is a gem!

Not a single word. Only music and sounds fill th ears while the narration of the frames and the imagery pull us forward. Does it work? If the fact that I took my 8 year old son who has never seen a silent film nor "art house" film before is any indication, this a beaming film of success. It's beautiful and full of emotion and expressive of so much that we have all known, faced or overcome in life or our very dreams. It is a powerful film that will surely leave a laying imprint on our family for years. Thank you.

Truly a uniquely inspiring film, Away captures a delicate balance between immense intricacy and sheer minimalism with ease and sustains it for the entirety of the film. This harmony exists in every aspect of the production and makes for an extremely satisfying time. I can't wait to own a copy and watch it many more times for years to come. If you get an opportunity to see a screening then do it! You won't regret it.
