Fragile Oceans
Collider
Fragile Oceans is AMCS's 60th Anniversary film exploring the fragility of Australia's marine ecosystems. Marine creatures formed entirely from water and air bubbles - a sea turtle, whale, octopus, and other threatened species, emerge from the ocean and drift through Sydney's streets. Depicted as lost and abandoned animals, the film confronts the out-of-sight, out-of-mind distance between urban Australians and struggling marine life.
The film’s soundtrack, Final Rescue Attempt, was kindly donated by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, and gave the film a beautifully moving, sorrowful yet uplifting accompaniment to the themes and visuals of the film.
