[SUBMARINE] is a short film about escapism and coming of age. It follows Stephanie, a young girl who’s becoming aware of the fractures in her family and the unhappiness of the adults around her. Stephanie escapes this world through swimming. She drowns out the noise of her everyday life by submerging herself and filling her ears with water.

[SUBMARINE] was produced for the 2015 My Røde Reel Short Film Competition.
