This short non-narrative film, inspired by Japanese 'landscape films' of the late 1960s, moves between carefully framed landscapes and closely observed scenes of the collective labor that occurs in them, drawing attention to the lived reality of disaster. In the face of seismic shifts in the social and material landscape, quotidian acts of labor appear as efforts to restore a sense of normalcy. Paying particular attention to the relationships between space, labor, and collective bodies, this film is a poetic tribute to both the existential precarity and resilience of communities who work the sea.
