TIDES (2026)

On a deserted Australian beach, teenager Mara wanders through fragmented memories of a lost loved one. With no dialogue, the short traces her grief’s volatile arc — quiet sadness curdling into anger, then a raw, physical breakdown — as the tide erases and reveals traces of the past.

Elwyn Holley writes, directs, and appears in a cryptic supporting role opposite Janine Sarmiento’s Mara, using the shoreline as a canvas for an internal storm compressed into three minutes.
