The Tide Keeper

Alyx Duncan · Canada · Fantasy / Drama / Experimental · 9 min · ♥︎ 492

Directed by Alyx Duncan · Starring Lee Stuart · 2014

An old sailor's dream carries the sea into his bed, where sea-green sheets become a polluted ocean and everyday objects start closing in on him.

A haunting silent fable in which puppetry turns one old sailor's bedroom into a choking, polluted sea.

“Who knows how to stem the tide except through dreams?”
