Mare Sapiens (2026)

Directors:	Jeff Daniel Silva, Aurélie Darbouret
Countries:	France

Overview:

Below the surface, the alien is us. Filmed entirely underwater with natural light and ambient sound, MARE SAPIENS moves through the Bay of Marseille as a space where living forms, infrastructures, and machines coexist. The film assembles a sensory field without commentary or hierarchy, letting the sea appear not as background or resource, but as a milieu that absorbs, resists, and persists.
