Overview

Finding himself in a house in the north of Iran by the Caspian Sea, the director picked up his handheld DV camera and began filming the seemingly anodyne events happening on the 500 metres of beach in front of his house—a piece of wood toyed with by the waves, people walking by the sea, indistinct shapes on a wintry beach or noisy ducks.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A spare, patient documentary that finds profound beauty and transience in the small, unguarded moments of everyday life by the sea. It's a meditation on observation itself, what we notice, what we miss, what endures.
