i was holding my breath when amin’s brother asked amin to go with him and i thought he brought him to a strip club but god the way i started sobbing when they showed us that it’s actually a gay bar
Flee
Um documentário em formato de animação que conta a história de um imigrante gay que teve que sair do Afeganistão após as várias interferências coloniais e discute de forma intima assuntos como lar, pertencimento, família e propósito. Um longa animado que utiliza de seu gênero principal, a animação, para criar uma história real que cativa, mas não espetaculariza as lutas e desafios de seus protagonista e sua família. Utilizando de uma narração cheia de verdade em suas falas e cria um documentário que, apesar de seus pesares como deixar de fora todo o contexto político de sua época, esse ainda é um ótimo relato que passa sua história e cria empatia sobre todas uma situação complexa envolvendo as ações do imperialismo e da mídia hegemônica.

My final watch of the year So I didn’t know what my final watch of the year was going to be. I was thinking maybe Hero (2002), or Police Story.I realised that I hadn’t watched Flee this year so I put it on. This is one of those films I just won’t ever get tired of watching. I know other people may not love it as much as I do. I just don’t care. Whilst extremely personal, you feel as if you’re being kept at arm's length because of the anonymity of it all. Which is totally understandable. Amin’s story is a tough one. One that I have no doubt many refugees have also experienced. The analysis of what that does to a person later in life was ultimately the most interesting part, Amin finds himself unable to relate to people on a certain level, being cold, choosing work over love. But ultimately Amin is happy, he has his husband, his work, and opening up about what happened to him as a child will ultimately do more good than bad. I love the soundtrack, Daft Punk, Low Roar, and a-ha all in one movie. Perfection.

"What does the word 'home' mean to you?" "Home? It's someplace safe. Somewhere you can stay, and you don't have to move on. It's not someplace temporary." I'm not really into documentary tbh. But, Flee hit me different. This documentary is wonderfully different with any other documentary I watched before. It's very well told, great and impactful story. Perfect. Oscar worthy.

Te separas por completo del echo de que es un documental, llegas a ver tantas coincidencias dramáticas en un corto tiempo que olvidas quien te narra y que es verídico y que no lo puede ser, visualmente es una marivilla y puede que sea una exploración muy intima sobre el descubrimiento forzado de una personalidad inestable por las circunstancias que lo rodean que definitivamente logra ser su mayor acierto.

"Animation is not a genre for kids. It's a medium for art, it's a medium for film.
