Low Tide

‘Low Tide’ follows the story of a cursed young sailor who is bound to a lifetime at sea, forever watching the life he once knew from the coastline. From a distance he looks upon the woman he once loved. Frozen in time - he watches as she moves forward whilst he is trapped in an endless horizon. 

One day the sailor is released from the curse - he urgently rushes ashore, longing and hoping for his lover, only to find she is no longer waiting. She has built a new life without him, finding stability and companionship in another. Heartbroken, the sailor returns to sea, finding solitude in the only place he has come to know.
