Under by Kevin Frilet

Nicolas Jaar collaborator Valentin Stip creates an ethereal score for director-to-watch Kevin Frilet’s "Under" "For his first foray into making a short film, Kevin Frilet did not plump for the easy road. He shot Under in a pool within the suburbs of Paris, casting friends, family and acquaintances aged seven to 77, most of whom had never dived before"

"The brief was high-concept, low budget. “I wanted to create a liquid universe where time is suspended, space infinite and depth unknown,” says Frilet, whose filmmaking mentorship has included stints as Assistant Director on Christopher Nolan’s Inception and Luc Besson’s Lucy. "Like the white desert in the George Lucas film THX 1138, with no border."
