OCEANIA: Journey to the Center

Sink or soar before the waves take it all.

The film begins on a coral atoll facing uninhabitability by 2030 due to rising seas and climate change. Through the story of a mother and her adult son, the film explores resilience, cultural survival, and the lasting impacts of colonisation.

Balancing discovery with loss, it urges us to reframe our relationship with climate data by engaging emotionally, socially, and spiritually. It is a reflective call to action, asking what connections are essential to human and ecological survival, and why we must restore them to ensure our future.

SCREENING WITH : A short film, Qotzuñi: People of the Lake (13 min) prior.
