This looks AMAZING to me. The cinematography is simple, but quite beautiful. The concept is intriguing and the teaser left me wanting more (which I guess is the point of a "teaser" haha).

FLOOD

FLOOD is an experimental narrative film. It begins on the water, on a fleet of hand crafted boats pieced together from scrap and found materials. On the water time twists and bends in mysterious ways. Some people aboard the rafts cannot remember a time before the boats. Others are lost in their memories from a previous life on the land. Some remember the journey starting out as a summer adventure among friends. Still others remember leaving their homes, that the way of living they used to know was no longer working, and that something had to give. As the flotilla creeps down the river the past, present and future stories of the boats and their inhabitants becomes both clearer and more elusive.

A mash-up of genres, FLOOD blends narrative, cinema verité, musical, and improvised experimental film. The film was shot amidst the street artist Swoon’s 2008 Swimming Cities of Switchback Sea project, in which seven homespun boats were built and crewed by an eclectic group of artists and performers. The boats floated down the Hudson River staging performances in towns along the way.

The film is loosely structured and largely improvised by non-actors playing themselves with fictionalized trajectories. The primary cast includes the bands Dark Dark Dark and Fall Harbor, members of which were actual crew on the boats. In addition to acting and performing in the film, the bands will be collaborating to write and record its musical score.

There will be two final versions of the film: one will be a stand-alone feature length film screened theatrically and at festivals, and another which will tour galleries, performance and community spaces in Spring 2010 with the musician/actors providing a live musical soundtrack.
