Synopsis

A psychological portrait of all the insecurities and challenges of a young woman in a restless search for her own place in life. Switching between different narrative modes - poetry and comedy, memoir and stream of consciousness - Thirsty Sea chronicles a day in the life of a young woman in a state of free-fall, haunted by her past, sidestepping her present, and stalked by a future she is reluctant to meet. But while Maria seems trapped in her impossible, maze-like consciousness, today, she will take control back.
