From the Filmmaker:

“I’ve been involved with Atlantic Challenge – an international youth traditional seamanship competition – for many years. We row and sail these big wooden boats called Bantry Bay Gigs. This maritime world has a beautiful crossover with the traditional music world, and after Elsie got involved with rowing, she wrote this song. To me, this film is a perfect fusion of some of the most important parts of my life. It feels especially potent right now, reminding us of the physical togetherness from which we currently have to abstain, and reinforcing the notion that a slower, more deliberate rhythm could be a healthy adjustment for the world moving forward.
Huge thanks to MOFF for putting this mini-festival together and selecting my film as a finalist.”
