Aquarium
United States, 2018
Director: Stephanie Maxwell
Producer: Stephanie Maxwell
Aquarium is a choreography of light and motion. The film presents a unique perspective on the exquisite beauty that is present in infinite abundance when one focuses attention on the motions of sea water and its expressive optical qualities. Aquarium was shot in Bonaire, Dutch Antilles at the shoreline in breaking waves, in tide pools, and underwater. The film’s thematic ideas were inspired by Camille Saint-Saëns’ musical composition, Aquarium (1886, Mouvement VII from the Le carnaval des animaux suite). In the first half of the film, composer Max Berlin has created a ‘jazzy’ arrangement of the original Aquarium composition for bass, piano and percussion. This is followed by an orchestral performance of Saint-Saëns’ original Aquarium composition. With a dramatic structure and through its ocean abstractions and representations, the Aquarium film is meant to intrigue, enlighten, and inspire.

Getting lost in a maze of branches, leaves and distress. In that loneliness, besieged by panic and pierced by guilt, standing up and finding the dearest thing. Together finding yourself again. Thanks to a four-legged Virgil, ready to lead a lost mother through the dark forest, beyond the infernal anguish of a child lost out of sight of and swallowed by the forest. It will be up to Jack, with his nose and his affectionate lappings, to instill calm and courage in a woman seized by anxiety, as she had been before from work. An ancient and universal story like fairy tales. Modern as the work that everywhere creeps in, the distracting tablets, the office that claims every attention, the loneliness and the sense of abandonment. Without talking wolves or grandmother's baskets, if anything with a dog capable of smiling and consoling with his eyes. Because the forest is not full only of obstacles to be tackled alone. It also guards some friends, and a sweetly suggested lesson. Not to forget.
