IMA alum, Sean Hanley is screening his thesis film, The Whelming Sea at the 13th annual Imagine Science Film Festival on Sat., Oct. 17th as part of the shorts program titled “Animals Speak Up.”

The collection of films in the program ask the audience to engage with the world from a non-human perspective. The Whelming Sea will close out the program line-up by focusing on the entanglement of shorebirds, horseshoe crabs, and human infrastructure during the phenomenal migrations that take place in New York City every spring. The film features the work of IMA Alums Kaija Siirala (sound design), Kevin T. Allen (sound mix), Fivel Rothberg (location sound), and Alex Mallis (score).
