Dive

8m Drama 2025

High above the Atlantic, Jess stands at a precipice between memory and momentum — where the past and future crash like the waves below.

In the wake of her mother’s death, Jess slips away from a family gathering at an Irish coastal hotel and heads to the Atlantic — towards a precipice where memory and momentum meet. As she stands suspended on the weathered diving tower, the landscape of her inner world begins to unfurl: flickering fragments of childhood fears, failed pregnancies, the intimacy of loss, and the messy beauty of motherhood.

Anchored in sensory detail and inner voice, Dive traces a woman’s private reckoning with past and present. It explores how the body holds trauma, how memory haunts the everyday, and how transformation sometimes begins with a single, defiant act.

Set against the elemental power of sea and sky, Dive is a lyrical meditation on the tension between holding on and letting go—where stillness gives way to motion. It asks what it takes to rise again—and whether that first step forward might feel like falling.
