The Wonders Beneath the Sea
A mother and daughter’s underwater birthday celebration alters both perceptions and the relationship, over the course of dinner. Their seemingly mundane conversation raises questions about individual and society, belonging and rejection.
The winner of The Golden Chair Award 2021
“Immersed in an intimate and surreal setting, the jury was so impressed by the strong filmmaking and wonderfully subtle and nuanced performances that allow the audience to experience the history and generational differences of these two women. Within the context of their relationship, we not only examine what it means to help others, but what it means to be a human being in today’s society.”
