28 AUGUST Westbourne Studios Grand Opening Ceremony 6:00 Undertow Neil Mcenery-West 27mins 12A Undertow explores two journeys. The first is a perpetual nightmare set in a deserted city. A heightened and increasingly fragmented visual/sound environment serves to create a physical world reflecting the protagonists disturbed psychological landscape. In the same city, only now populated and overcrowded, a woman grieving begins to find the world around her increasingly claustrophobic and unbearable. Ordinary places and sounds take on an ominous and foreboding presence. As these two worlds collide, the lines between what is real and what is not, what is remembered and what is only imagined, become impossibly blurred. Undertow is a film about perception, and how the way you view the things around you is merely a reflection of your own inner state.
