We are so proud and happy to announce that Jonas Poher Rasmussen’s animated documentary film Flee has won the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance Film Festival 2021!

The jury’s motivation is as follows: This film mixes the personal with the universal. It’s a remarkable blend of film genres which manages to take the audience into a global issue while following an intimate story. It elegantly mixes humor, music and drama and is not afraid to shock. It’s an instant classic. Everything you are looking for in a film. The World Cinema Grand Jury Prize goes to FLEE.

Flee is produced by Monica Hellström & Signe Byrge Sørensen for Final Cut for Real. Charlotte de Gournerie from Sun Creature Studio is the film’s animation producer. The wonderful animation art direction is by Jess Nichols and animation director is Kenneth Ladekjær.
