  • Finally! A non-competition freediving, non-spearfishing short story done well that empathizes love for the ocean and beauty within. The narration and cinematography is on point! In most stories about freediving, the heavy non-American accents distracts me that I end up watching them on mute with subtitles but you were able to pull me in with Eddie's voiceover. Thank you for this emotional journey and I hope to see more. 😍
