The Deep was hauntingly beautiful. It felt very poetic at times. Very connective to real world, beyond being inspired by historical tragedy. We all carry the past with us, ours and/or our families, but you can’t let it consume you.

I’m still not sure how I felt about the romance(ish). I can see how it helped Yetu, but the time she spent beached gave a different feeling than the time leading up and after. If that makes any sense.
