In this episode of Water we discuss a hauntingly poignant tale by French director, Mati Diop. Her masterpiece, Atlantics, is a refreshingly unexpected story that we both consider a must watch. Join us as we break down the duality of water as both a comfort and a threat and the way it centers the movie. Yes, we talk about the love story that lies at the surface, but we also discuss the way in which this story is a meditation on possession of the female body, the physical stress of socio-economic disparity, and colonialism in Senegal.
