DESCENT ≈ An Atlas of Relation included in Finger Mullet Film Festival ’23

From the festival press release:

FMFF is dedicated to nurturing an experimental art and film culture in St. Augustine by providing an
inspired platform of the best national and international short films alongside a burgeoning local and
regional culture of time-based creators and storytellers.

The artists and filmmakers included in this year’s Open Call / Curated screening blocks have harnessed
the theme, Local Waters. This theme acknowledges the role that water has played in the difficult history
of our community, and many communities world-wide, as well as our democracy. Water is essential to
life. It can provide vital coastal resources one day and life-threatening weather the next. We understand
that to live in St. Augustine, or near any significant body of water, is to know the beauty of water as a
force of nature as well as a cultural symbol of power.
