The film will deal with themes of grief, exploitation, and self destruction. It is a deeply personal flim that I subconciously. wrote as an avanue to wrestle with my own experiences and feelings about love and loss.

Despite being an animated film, it is not for children.

I hope you all like it.

This will be a film set in 18th Century Scotland and follow a whaler on a small island trying to put his life together before he encounters a supernatural option that may not provide all the answers that it seems on first glance, (is it an ocotpus? Maybe it's an octupus)
