Wild Water Woman

On a cold winter morning a woman takes her first plunge into wild water swimming.
A parody on the increasingly trendy "wild water swimming" - but also a comment on how every season there seems to be a new fad (usually aimed at women) that promises to empower or even save us.
How are we left feeling after we try these new things, and don't necessarily reap the rewards we are promised?

Director Statement

I wanted to make a film that served as both a sincere love letter to the beach by my flat in Cliftonville, Margate and a spoof of myself.
