synopsis: 

90% of everything we consume is shipped to us by boat. Seablindness explores the  environment in which land meets the sea, the interstitial space of ports where capital is  concentrated and distributed. Endless depos, cranes capable of moving hundreds of tons  with disturbing precision, gigantic ships ready to sail to the other side of the world.  A patient observation however reveals a different perspective: a naked child learning to  swim in the shade of a crane, wild birds grazing by the container towers, young people in  kayaks blocking the dock for a brief moment. On a journey along the varied edges, we  intercept a radio communication between a port official and an abandoned seafarer  overcome by a strange sickness. The documentary poem explores ecological anxiety. It is  not, however, about the people who feel it, but for them.
