Ships Outside My Window

An exploration of the filmmaker's father's life as a seafarer in increasingly tough global conditions. A voyage into the liminal spaces created by mental illness and the affective struggle of a family in its crosshairs. The history mined from her parents, serves as a reflection on the nature of memories itself. It is a determined coming-to-terms with those memories that have shaped her present day preoccupations and positions — a contemplation of the mind, especially the mind out of control. The sea, she roars.
