FLEE TELLS THE EXTRAORDINARY TRUE STORY OF A MAN, AMIN, ON THE VERGE OF MARRIAGE WHICH COMPELS HIM TO REVEAL HIS HIDDEN PAST FOR THE FIRST TIME.

Sundance Grand Jury Prize winner FLEE tells the story of Amin Nawabi as he grapples with a painful secret he has kept hidden for 20 years, one that threatens to derail the life he has built for himself and his soon to be husband. Recounted mostly through animation to director Jonas Poher Rasmussen, he tells for the first time the story of his extraordinary journey as a child refugee from Afghanistan. Directed by Jonas Poher Rasmussen Executive Produced by Riz Ahmed and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau Produced by Monica Hellström, Signe Byrge Sørensen

On this project, I was a part of a fairly small team and had the pleasure of working as both an animator and a clean up artist. Working on Flee was a really rewarding experience as I got to work on very different sequences, from the refugees being stuck in the boat to the sequence where Amin is out in a club for the first time.

Being a part of this production was a very special experience and I am very thankful that I had the chance to be a part of it.
