PRESENTED BY

Anthropomorphic animals lose themselves in mundane activities as an apocalypse descends.

In a world on the brink of cataclysm, anthropomorphic animals at an airport indulge familiar modern habits, such as struggling with luggage, queuing tiredly at security checkpoints or for coffee, or staring at reality TV shows on their phones. Swedish animation auteur Niki Lindroth von Bahr (Something to Remember, MIFF 2020) charms with another gorgeously detailed stop-motion fable, whose star-stacked voice cast includes Noomi Rapace, Alexander Skarsgård and Denis Lavant.
