The opinion of the Artistic Director of the Festival International du Film de Saint-Jean-de-Luz:
With Aquaticans, Alice Barsby suggests that we dive both literally and figuratively into a fantastic universe. Her offbeat cinema is at once poetic and troubling, in the same way in which look-ahead films from the 70s predicted catastrophes that are now upon us… Prepare your masks and your tubas!
