An experimental found footage film revealing a couples’ joyous discovery of a hidden beach, accidentally recorded on their cell phone. Who is being discovered by whom?
Directors’ statement:
When Elza and Ali travelled to the seashore, Ali, an avid photographer, could not be parted from his cell phone. Seemingly tucked away in his pocket, it accidentally recorded them as they walked along the shore in search of a hidden beach. When they returned and Ali showed the footage to Elza, she realised this accidental recording was a perfect capsule of their time together, full of laughter and discovery. The (accidentally hidden) footage of the couple finding the hidden beach concurrently reveals this hidden, intimate moment between the couple.
