Imagine Ocean blends Hindu mythology and human stories with a rich soundscape, reflecting on our changing environment. Featuring a Japanese Ama diver, the Ise-Shima coast’s waves and the mythical Makara, it highlights a deep sea-human bond. With no dialogue, it relies on visuals and sound, merging reality, myth, ecological shifts and human existence into an intertwined narrative. Initially straightforward, it evolves into an evocative, profound film, showcasing our intricate relationship with the ocean and Earth.
