Feature Film - Learning to Breathe Underwarer
(Feature Film)
Summary:
Eight-year-old Leo’s best friend is an 8m shark, which his dad Peter, an artist, put on the roof of their house. Leo misses his mum who died five years ago, and Peter misses his wife, still swinging between sudden bursts of manic productivity and long periods of crippling anxiety. That all changes when Bulgarian au pair Anya joins the household to help care for Leo. Slowly Leo and Peter’s strange little world begins to open up and Leo finally has someone new to learn from. Leo’s unique perspectives bring humour, imagination, and an innocent charm to this off-beat comedy drama.
