To the Woods (French: Une fugue) is a French animated short film, directed by Agnès Patron and released in 2025.[1] The film depicts a woman's hazy and fragmented memories of going into the forest with her brother as a child, becoming increasingly abstract as the film suggests, without ever explicitly depicting, that the brother may have died in the forest.
The film premiered in the Cannes Critics' Week program at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival.[2] It was later screened at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival, where it won the award for Best Animated Short Film.[3]
