Description
At Sea, Staring Up is a richly poetic magical relationship drama that follows the journeys of five characters, all motivated by love, across three continents: Emma the Greek sails the seas alone so that her father will live; Noah searches for his wife who flew through a hole in the windscreen; Elise drives through the German countryside, trying to get her baby to sleep; Caleb swims oceans to prove his love for Sylvia; while Sylvia climbs waterfalls and jumps through time and space. Told in poetic language, Kruckemeyer creates a magical world that is very real.
