My Spine is a Beautiful Sea Monster

The idea for this film developed at a 2017 SQIFF filmmaking workshop which encouraged attendees to embrace a part of their bodies or selves they found challenging or difficult, and to turn it into something beautiful. I have always found my scoliosis very unattractive and never wear clothing which reveals my back. However, I do love the sea, glitter and sequins. I therefore decided to create a beautiful, be-sequinned sea monster out of my spine which would then dance according to my curvature.
