Also Read: Neon Acquires Jonas Poher Rasmussen's 'Flee' in 7-Figure DealMade lucid in hand-drawn animated form, Amin’s memories are expressed in two distinguishable styles: The most traumatic, and thus the foggiest, appear through rough lines in muted black-and-white, like an apparition barely visible in the mist of his subconscious, but with tangible sensorial impact.

That minimalist approach changes for sequences in the present and the larger part of the past. The bulk of the craftsmanship is just as evocative but more visually concrete and rendered in a rich color palette.

Think “The Breadwinner” or “Waltz with Bashir,” both as aesthetic reference points and thematic cousins.Far from distancing us from Amin and his detailed retelling of.

One way or another I hope that anyone listening will just think, ‘Wow, Kid Cudi is amazing.’”Of ‘Let Somebody Go’, Martin added: “I have always loved Selena’s voice and when ‘Let Somebody Go’ arrived it felt like she was the only person to sing it with.“I’m so happy she said yes.

Sundance Review: Jonas Poher Rasmussen’s ‘Flee’
Just as Waltz with Bashir did 13 years ago, director Jonas Poher Rasmussen robustly reaffirms in Flee that animation can be used not just for amusement but for any purpose, in this case to tell the harrowing story of what some refugees from Afghanistan went through in order to forge new lives in the West. This is an odyssey of seemingly unending suffering and insecurity, rendered in bold images both impressionistic and savagely real, that imaginatively reflects the brutal international odyssey the subjects endured.

'Flee': Film Review | Sundance 2021
One of the most exciting international discoveries of last year's Sundance festival was His House, which explored the cultural dislocation of the refugee experience through a genuinely nerve-rattling horror prism. There's a comparable genre-defying boldness to Danish writer-director Jonas Poher Rasmussen's Flee, which mixes mood-driven, hand-drawn animation with archival footage to trace the harrowing history and lasting psychological scars of an Afghan man hiding from his past for the two decades since being granted political asylum in Copenhagen as a child.

‘Flee’ Review: Doc Explores the Layers of Truth in Afghan Refugee’s Survival Story
Peter Debruge Chief Film CriticAmin Nawabi is not the real name of the Afghan refugee introduced in the Sundance movie “Flee,” nor is that his real face, which has been distorted by animation to protect his identity. As “Flee” unfolds, you may also start to question whether the story Amin shares is even real, doubling back and contradicting itself as it does over the course of director Jonas Poher Rasmussen’s unconventional portrait.There’s a good reason for such subterfuge.
