SAILING A SINKING SEA

ABOUT

An experiential documentary exploring the culture of the Moken people of Burma and Thailand. The Moken are a seafaring community and one of the smallest ethnic minority groups in Asia, traditionally spending eight months out of the year aboard thatch-roofed wooden boats. Wholly reliant upon the sea, their entire belief system revolves around water. This film beautifully weaves a visual and aural tapestry of Moken mythologies and present-day practices.
