“In its gentle touch, water whispers to our souls, an unspoken language that transcends words.

With each dive, we descend into the sanctuary of water's embrace, shedding the burdens of the mundane world and becoming one with the silent symphony of aquatic life.

In the union of human and water, there exists a silent communion—a bond unspoken yet deeply understood.”

Whisper of Water is an experimental short film that tells the story of a girl who has a strong connection with water. Through non-linear narrative structure and immersive sensory experiences, the film delicately portrays the sensation of water—its beauty, softness, freedom, and emotion.

My inspiration for this project stems from my personal experiences and emotional attachment to water. As a PADI two-star certificated freediver, I have explored underwater realms in various locations like Mexico, Hawaii, and Catalina Island.

The profound sensation of diving into the water, feeling embraced by something soft and warm, has left a lasting impression on me. And I’m very obsessed with the beautiful underwater world. All of these inspired me to make an experimental film to convey the themes of freedom, peace, softness, and the inherent beauty of water, illustrating its enchanting connection with a human being.

The story begins with a girl who can’t hear anything in her life except the sound of water. It’s the only way that she communicates with the world. She’s gifted of this silent language.
In this setting that defies reality, I aim to magnify the extraordinary bond between her and water.

We can not hear anything when she towels her hair, turns on hair dryer and cuts hair……only when she opens the tap, a clear sound of running water accompanies.

Then, like a mesmerizing poem, we plunge into a surreal realm where she dances and plays with water, gracefully and beautifully.

In the end, she sinks into the bathtub, transforming into a jellyfish that glides through the air, blurring the lines between reality and the ethereal underwater world.
