Cat is a solitary animal, but as its home is devastated by a great flood, he finds refuge on a boat populated by various species, and will have to team up with them despite their differences.. The team was very adamant in getting all of the "voices" be done by real animals, so they recorded real animals for the movie. To get the capybara sound, the sound engineer had to travel to a zoo and tickle capybaras. However, the real capybara sounds did not match the personality that the capybara character would have, so instead they used a baby camel for this one.. There’s a post-credits scene.. Referenced in Radio Dolin: The Results of 2024 .The Best Films of the Year (2024). The world today isn’t exactly something that gives you hope for the future. This movie is about a time when humans are (seemingly) gone. So in that way, it doesn’t really give you hope either. But…Earth isn’t just humans. It’s full of animals that sometimes just live together in some sort of harmony. Granted. This movie makes it seem like it’s so easy for them to live together across species. That part is somewhat silly. But the movie is done in a way that the animals are somewhat humanized. And the way they interact together gives me a bit of hope for earth. Not humans. Earth will be fine. As for humans, that remains to be seen. But this movie is a small wonder that will make you smile and enjoy about 1½ hours of happiness.
