'As the Tide Comes in' is a silent film that explores the puzzling in-betweens moving from a toxic relationship into a healthy one, and all of the resistance that comes with that. "I felt it important to depict this film with no dialogue (and to reach across all borders) to truly represent all of the feelings and emotions that we can't express with words, but rather through heightening of the senses and experience."
