In The Maritime Frequencies (2025)

“We’ll remember the earth as if it were a dream.” This film is an exploration of the coastal landscapes of San Francisco, using darkroom developers made from the solutions of our times—bay water, hand sanitizer and “safe” detergent—in a conversation about how we internalize our climate emergency, letting mortalities large and small emerge only when the night puts our guard down. Inspired by the San Francisco Bay, dreams and novelist Octavia Butler’s vision of a future California. Featuring Bill Basquin, Ivy Jeanne, Juan Aguirre, Annalise Velasquez, Valerie Soe, Mark Klatte and Mayuran Tiruchelvam. (Greta Snider)
