Apneia
2019, Portuguese. Directed by Carol Sakura & Walkir Fernandes.
Her mother’s distance, her father’s absence, and the traumas provoked by her stepfather form an ocean inside the girl Muriel, who is afraid of swimming. The animation, directed by Carol Sakura and Walkir Fernandes, poetically approaches through verbal and visual metaphors the experience of plunging into one's own pains so as to finally emerge.
