See the Sea (Regarde la mer) 1998

On the beautiful holiday island of Yeu, the solitude of Sasha, a young mother awaiting her husband's return, is broken by the appearance of Tatiana, a brooding backpacker who asks to camp outside her cottage. Sasha grows increasingly fascinated with her mysterious visitor whose demeanor gradually becomes more ominous as she insinuates herself into Sasha's home. With its stunning cinematography, See the Sea provocatively uncovers the dark and sinister undercurrents swirling beneath curiosity and attraction, ultimately challenging our assumptions about desire, identity and motherhood.
