Short Synopsis: |
In 2022, artistic swimmer Anita Alvarez made headlines around the world when she lost consciousness underwater in competition. Joy during the performance and competition later turned to sadness, with a fear of getting back into the pool. Learning to trust her instincts, the water and the process were necessary to return to her creative expression. In Under The Surface, Anita explores the feeling of these four emotions and their place in her journey in a new way. |
