Slocum at Sea with Himself

About This Movie

Slocum at Sea with Himself is an intriguing exploration of solitude and self-discovery, wrapped in an animation style that feels almost surreal.

The animation captures the stark beauty of the ocean, contrasting with the personal journey of the sailor. Themes of resilience and introspection are woven throughout, making it a distinctive take on the sailing genre, one that resonates deeply with anyone who has faced their own waves of uncertainty.
