This is a story that takes place at sea and that is represented with using sand I took from sea. I wanted to show the importance of environments and life through the story about the decline and rebirth of imaginary characters. As for the characters in this film, the sea is a place where humans purify themselves and also rest. Mother ocean has become polluted, but it is still needed. One day a polluted ocean overflowed and swallowed humans. A long, long time has passed. what has become of humans? They who quietly waited so long at the bottom of the ocean to return to what it used to be. They finally return to the surface of the ocean and become their original state with big breaths.
