Over de film
Director Pepijn Tebrunsvelt: "It was summer of 2020. I was driving while shuffling through some new music. I stumbled upon a song that for some reason invoked a particular melancholic feeling in me. Music often has a very strong effect on the stories I write. In the following days as the song stayed in my head, an imagine appeared in my head. I looked through the eyes of someone that was being drowned by a young woman. It was a very weird thing to try to place in context. Figuring out the story felt very much like being a detective: where are we, who are these people and why did this happen?"
"The idea floated around in my head for about a week, I sat down and wrote the first draft of the script in one evening. Later I consulted with friends ands creative partners to finetune the ending. That draft is the one that went into production. I was very pleased that the entire vision stayed true to the script beat by beat. It ended up working out exactly like I hoped it would."
