Synopsis

What does it mean to feel at home, and how can we carry those feelings of comfort with us in an ever-changing environment as we seek out new landscapes? Springtide is a coming-of-age portrait of a girl balancing on a thin line between adolescence and adulthood as she embarks on a spiritual journey.

Springtide is a coming-of-age portrait directed by Elke Hertogs, following a girl balancing on the thin line between adolescence and adulthood as she sets out on a spiritual journey. Its central question is about belonging — what it means to feel at home, and how we carry that comfort with us as the landscape around us keeps changing. The cinematography leans on place and natural light to externalise that search, letting the shifting environments do the emotional work alongside the performance.
