"We know the approximate number of spectators, but the figures change every day, as the film has only seen a third of its screen life circle. We still have Asia, large territories in Europe, and Latin America ahead of us," Kaza told LETA, quoted by Baltic Times. World sales rights for the film were acquired by Paris-based company Charades in 2023.

Flow tells the story of an independent cat, which has to look for shelter after his home has been destroyed by a devastating flood. Similarly to the director's previous work Away / Projām (a hypnotic survival odyssey of a lone protagonist, produced by Gints Zilbalodis himself), Flow also features Zilbalodis in different creative roles: director, composer, production designer, as well as co-scriptwriter and coproducer.

Flow was produced by Matīss Kaža through Latvia’s Dream Well Studio in coproduction with Sacrebleu Productions and Take Five, and it was supported by the National Film Centre of Latvia, the French CNC, Eurimages, Radio Télévision Belge Francophone, the Belgian Tax Shelter, and French regional funds.
