'FLEE' NOMINATED FOR TWO BAFTAS / by Maria Kristensen

It is with great excitement that we announce the nomination of ‘Flee’ directed by Jonas Poher Rasmusssen and produced by Monica Hellström and SIgne Byrge Sørensen in not one, but two categories at this year’s BAFTA awards! ‘Flee’ is in great company in the categories of Best Documentary and Best Animated Film.

‘Flee’ tells the extraordinary true story of Amin who, on the verge of marriage, is compelled to uncover his past for the first time – one that he has kept secret for over twenty years and which has continuously threatened the life he has built for himself since making the journey as a child refugee from Afghanistan to Denmark. Told mostly through animation, ‘Flee’ weaves together a stunning tapestry of images and memories which tell the affecting story of a young man grappling with his traumatic past in order to discover his true self and the meaning of home.

The award ceremony will be held on the 13th March 2022.
