“Ocean Gravity is a short film that turns underwater codes upside down and plunges us this time into a weightless world,” Gautier said. “Just like in space, there is no more up or down, no more right side up or upside down. The ocean becomes the cosmos, man becomes a satellite, and the bottom of the sea turns into an unknown planet. Welcome in the unsettling universe of Ocean Gravity.”
Gautier added:
“I decided to film without considering the elementary framing rules. I was no longer limited by the idea of top and bottom, like in space. In those conditions, I was able to create the natural illusion of a curved planet. The big challenge was to avoid filming the abundant sea life (sharks, dolphins and numerous fish) to maintain a spatial and non-marine atmosphere.”
