Synopsis: On the shores of Brittany, along its granite coastline, an aquatic closed-door drama unfolds with every low tide. On the melancholic foreshore, when the sea recedes, regular inhabitants and trapped visitors find themselves side by side in ephemeral miniature arenas. All must survive for thirteen hours. Throughout the ebb, slack and flow of the tide, the rules of the marine world are turned on their head until the ocean returns: predators can become prey, revealing unexpected vulnerabilities; surprising alliances form; and intruders try to adapt to this new law of the jungle.
Project Approach:
- An environmental assessment has been carried out to limit the inherent impacts of the project’s concept.
- Accommodation was chosen for its accessibility by soft mobility or its proximity (maximum 15 km).
