Exploring the conscious, the unconscious and the self, By Winds and Tides takes a deep experimental dive into the birth of an idea—how it takes shape, how it is released. An allegorical quest, the film combines images and words into a singular sigh.
In a Niagara Falls motel, an unremarkable couple attempts a romantic getaway. But as the days go by, the trip threatens to turn into a cold shower. I Don’t Love You Anymore is a humorous exploration of the red flags we choose to ignore to keep a relationship alive.
