The international success of "Flow", an animated Latvian film about a cat's quest to escape rising waters, has taken its director by surprise. "Flow" has no dialogue and Gints Zilbalodis, who had a budget of $3.6 million, beat off giant animation studios to win a Golden Globe and now has two Oscar nominations. "We thought the best case scenario would be that we would be selected in some of the festivals and have a nice festival run," Zilbalodis told AFP.
