Thought-provoking narrative that lingers long after the credits roll
14 May 2024
GB's new film beautifully intertwines the mystical world of mermaids with poignant reflections on mental health and the devastating effects of human waste and pollution. Through captivating storytelling, imagery and performance by Dayva, he's crafted a thought-provoking narrative that lingers long after the credits roll.

My favorite part about the film which was also my least favorite was how Nell came in to save the day with zero expectations like the white savior that we see in so many Hollywood films. Nell's journey in the story reveals that she is a covert narcissist exploiting Oee for her own benefit to further the book she is writing.

Without giving away spoilers the ending will leave you wondering what is fact and fiction. I usually don't like these types of endings bc I find them lazy but this one was sincerely a thoughtful and creative choice.
