The Light of the Ocean

A short film

“When I was younger, I almost died in the water. Now, the water has saved my life.”

The Light of the Ocean is a short film about the powerful effects the ocean can have on our mental health. From a near death experience to a life saving ritual, a battle against the darkness of depression, and the positivity that comes with a community of like-minded people. A group project for the second year of my Marine and Natural History Photography degree.
