Upper Current
A hit-and-run spirals into a nightmarish struggle against fate as a man’s desperate attempt to cover his crime leads him into the merciless grip of the open sea.
On a desolate stretch of the N4, a driver makes a fatal error: after a driver strikes a cyclist in the dead of night, he impulsively hides the body, determined to erase any trace of the accident. By dawn, he’s taken drastic measures—anchoring his fishing boat with the body concealed onboard, heading out into the vast and indifferent expanse of the open sea. In the dim, early light, his plan to dispose of the evidence begins to unravel. A single mistake—a dropped paddle—forces him into the water. The tide shifts against him, pulling him farther from the boat and deeper into an unforgiving current. As the night fades to morning, only the boat remains, adrift in an eerie calm, the weight of his decisions left to float in silence.
