Strong Waters 2018

A sensory and immersive experience transports viewers to a place seemingly frozen in time yet possessing a timeless quality. Guided by a female voice reciting a mythological text about the world's creation, the film explores the co-existence of ancient elements like water and plant life with the indigenous people who inhabit the area. The camera quietly follows a boat drifting along a calm river, revealing the landscape's history as if through the rings of a tree. Accompanied by an ancestral chant, the film progresses into a poetic exploration, evoking the imagination and delving into the core of the physical and metaphysical world.
