A meditative film pilgrimage following the River Lee by foot, by boat and through dance performance from source to sea. Segments of these journeys form a kaleidoscope of riverine consciousness. Blurring the lines between river, human, shoreline and industry an affirmation of the rights of a river unfold. An embodied and felt experience of the river is prioritised. Three female performers Siobhán Ní Dhuinnín, Kanako Haru and the filmmaker accompany the river through site responsive improvisations fragments of voice over in Irish and English further situate the river within a wider personal and political landscape.
