Breathing Underwater

Eliot Rausch · Experimental / Poem / Animation · 5 min · ♥︎ 2.6K

Directed by Eliot Rausch · Starring Olivia Allchin, Ron Allchin, William Allchin, Harwood Gordon · 2014

A narrator recounts building a strong house by the sea, and what happens when the sea, slowly and unstoppably, comes in.

A meditative visual poem about control, surrender and grace.

I built my house by the sea. Not on the sands, mind you; not on the shifting sand. And I built it of rock. A strong house by a strong sea. And we got well acquainted, the sea and I. Good neighbors. Not that we spoke much
