40 days after the death of his wife, Adrien develops an obsession to walk on water. He visits the nearby pool every day, repeatedly throwing himself in the pool as if he’s performing a ritual. In the meantime, Portia, his 19-year-old daughter, struggles to accept her father’s condition, intimidated by his obsessions. One day, Portia and Adrien get into an argument after he refuses to let Portia meet her friends. That night, Portia checks upon her sleeping father and secretly leaves the house, joining her friends in a party. When Portia returns back home in the morning, Adrien catches her red handed. And for the first time in her life, Portia challenges her father.
This film was created as part of the advanced directing program at Northwestern University, a selective thesis program within the university’s film curriculum. The film adapts a story of a man’s obsession to walk on water in Korea back in the early 20th century, when the country was under colonial rule. Adapted to an American setting through an interracial father-daughter relationship, the film asks questions about family, colonialism, race, and religion both in the domestic space and our social sphere. We hope that this film would enrich the discourse on racial conflict, broken families, and portrayals of mental illness.
