Review by stubeatz

I rarely watch this kind of film and went because the maker is a friend's brother. It does not have a linear story, though it is in three sections relating (somehow) to the turning of the tide. I found it very enjoyable once I tuned in to its study of texture - and old rope, worn wood, metal... - sounds such as the clank of a windlass as an anchor is raised or a sail hauled up - as well as light in sunrises and sunsets over estuaries, offshore wind turbines and the ever-changing sea. For me is is a collection of breath - catching moments that pleasurably filled the whole running time. Just when I was thinking 'more of the same', something unexpected and new would pull me back in.
