I personally think both deaths are less ambiguous and found it upsetting. The bird is injured and seems depressed when it ‘ascends’ and is never seen again. We were confused at first, but the cat seemed to grieve the bird.

Second, the whale. I don’t think this is ambiguous at all. The cat even wants to save him and he’s beached. I found it very upsetting, especially since animal peril is such a huge theme.

I mean, this should be a post-apocalyptic scenario, so I don't know if we can consider them to be abandoned. Maybe they were just born in a world without humans? Anyway it's not to be taken for granted.

There is a really triggering scene for any survivors out there:


The bird is assaulted by her flock. The leader crushes her head into the ground with his claws. The bird tries to free itself but is unable to, we see its suffering and helplessness. The rest of the tribe stands on its wings and breaks them. The scene is heartbreaking.

No, all of the characters are animals, and most of them don't have anyone to take care of them because they are full-grown; The movie takes place in a world where there are no humans taking care of them. There is one pair of animal parents, but they are not abusive.

I would say yes - the crew from the boat decide to take the bad dogs (that were chasing the cat) with them. The dogs are still bad though and end up breaking the monkey's precious item.

Sort of, but not substance abuse. A lemur is obsessed with material possessions and that obsession defines the character for most of the film.

only fish clearly die, and it is not violent. a bird rises and disappears in a rapture-like scenario that is left to interpretation. a whale is shown dying after being beached, but is alive and safe in a post-credits scene. most animals shows in peril, even for a second, are shown alive and well later.

Dogs fighting outside of human intervention is not "dog fighting" as normally thought of with this term which usually means humans intentionally forcing and raising dogs to fight.

The closest things to a horse in the movie are deer. A herd of deer runs away from a catastrophic flood at the beginning of the movie. A deer herd is seen again near the end of the movie, implying that at least some of the deer survived the flood.

No, but there is a scene where the dogs and capybara are in the boat that got stuck in a tree that is hanging over a cliff/deep cavern. The animals desperately try to rescue them before the tree collapses and the boat falls into the abyss. All the animals are rescued safely.

Some would see the scene of a bird being attacked by other birds as torture. Others would see it as a depiction of animal behaviour that is unsettling but not comparable to humans torturing a human.

at one point the cat nearly drowns, losing consciousness and sinking until it is saved. later the cat falls from the top of the boat and briefly loses consciousness. both times the cat recovers.

The only characters are animals (cat, dogs, capybara, Secretary birds, Ring-tailed lemurs, whale), so they're all incapable of making obscene gestures.

Additionally, no words are spoken throughout the entire movie; only animal, nature, & object sound effects.

During pivotal scene there is some magical swirling imagery with a mild flashing effect. Also a couple of underwater sequences with some strobe-like camera movement.

No words are spoken throughout the entire movie; only animal, nature, & object sound effects.

No, but due to the *strictly* visual storytelling, one might draw comparisons to the Genesis Flood, the Rapture, & the idea of heaven from Christianity with the events of the story.

Every animal is essentially nude the entire movie. But they’re animals and it’s not graphic or even anatomically accurate.

No debate due to this being a silent film, but some may have thoughts on it when seeing this beautiful but dangerous and melancholy post apocalyptic world.

Moreso bittersweet.

The cat finds belonging with its new friends and they look at their reflections in a puddle.
