'Waterdance - A Ballet of Life in The Sea' is a view into the spontaneous choreography of marine life while it goes about the business of living in the open sea. Dolphins swim together in a ballet that affirms the integrity and structure of the pod. Sharks dance as if in primordial choreography that illustrates both their beauty and grace that bypasses the menacing mindlessness of their customary portrayal. Sea Lions spin, pirouette, play, and dance in a ballet that is as intricate and graceful as any human endeavor.
Waterdance is a film that elicits an experience that can put you in touch with your own dreams and fantasies about the sea. Its music will carry you into the misty blue depths while you are in the comfort of your own home. It will allow you to appreciate the dance of the these beautiful marine creatures which encircle and captivate you as they reveal the non-verbal mysteries of their life in the sea. This journey of co-opted self discovery will let us all understand more about ourselves as we in turn understand more about the alien life forms of the beautiful blue abyss.
