Océan Titanic / Titanic Ocean

Synopsis

Kyoko, une jeune japonaise qui s’entraîne pour devenir une sirène professionnelle, est sauvée de justesse grâce au bouche-à-bouche de son coach qui lui donne le “baiser de la vie”. Le désir s’éveille en elle, elle trouve sa voix de sirène et découvre les effets dévastateurs de son chant, ce qui l’entraînera à affronter l’autre bout du monde…

Un conte de fées non conventionnel moderne.

In english dans le texte
Akame, a young teenager girl, goes to a mermaid school to fulfill her dream: become a professional mermaid. But instead of becoming a professional, she discovers an intimate truth; a secret about life, love or the end of the world.

No skirts, no shoes: we are in mermaid school. To be a professional mermaid you must act accordingly. Holding your breath for at least 5 minutes, while exhaling perfect bubbles. Gliding through aquarium tanks, greeting sharks and singing songs of sirens.

Based on fragments of myths and archetypes such as The Little Mermaid and the myth of Sirens, Titanic Ocean is a blend of harsh realism and magical surrealism. Set in a professional mermaid school, an unconventional fairytale unfolds. Love, Eros, Death and Metamorphosis reign.

Titanic Ocean is a film made by girls for girls; a unique coming-of- age and crossing-human-boundaries-and-country-borders story; a “girl-power’’, tender, funny and dark film.
