About
Overview
Seaweed is a short experimental documentary investigating the folklore, ecology and history of seaweed in the north of Scotland. Archive footage and oral histories situate the farming of seaweed within the development and movement of Scottish communities. Seaweed harvesters, workers in alginate factories, archaeologists and activists weigh in on the miracle material. Dialogue unfolds around needs and desires to control and tame this natural element, while Julia's underwater closeups animate the seaweed as a thing that pulses, breathes, lives.
