Water Hazard
À tona d'água
Skip to sidebar
A child is spending the holidays with their family. The setting is perfect for relaxation and for wondering. Next to the house, workers are building a pond. Attracted to it, the child senses a presence, someone familiar yet still unknown. Alexander David captures on screen all the beauty of a childhood self-discovery and the first uncertain steps taken outside of parental control. Evocative and mellow, Water Hazard explores queer identity with a delicate and empathetic eye.
