Does the Sea Have a Heart?
SYNOPSIS
SINOPSE
A poetic essay, an ode to the sea, which has no human figure at its centre, but only traces in the sand, echoes, and presence through absence. It is through this absence that the essence of the human spirit is best revealed. As Kahlil Gibran wrote: “There must be something strangely sacred in salt. It is in our tears and in the sea.”
