The film

Leewater make foul-weather kit and wanted it worn, not modelled. We put a real crew on a thirty-foot boat in the Gulf of Finland and waited for the squall line the forecast had promised.

It arrived on the second day. Everything in the film happened in the forty minutes after that.

My part

Directed. Cinematography by Mira Saarinen; edit by Leah Okafor.
