Short Synopsis: | A story of a Nudibranch, a sea slug, sparkly and slimy yet to be seen. In collaboration with the greatest micro biologists Igor Adameyk , the movement performer Alvin Collantes and the free diver Dominique Abraham. Together raising awareness for the Marine and Macro Worlds. The story begin with the Mariana trench waking up. While the forgotten sea slug is locked inside a human tank, they are collecting oxygen and hair, evolving through different states and shapes. Transforming into liquid before breaking out of the cocoon state. The fluid forms representing the fluid gender identities and the LGBTQAI+ communities, as biology has always known queer lives. The Nudibranch lands inside another tank with mirrors. There it learns to take it first breath on land. Like most pelagic sea creatures breathing through skin. The viewers perspective shifts from domesticating underwater worlds to landing in the same sensory tank themselves at the end. The worlds we can find in one water-drop is ours too. |
