J P Aug 9 True cinema. Such a beautifully made film that captures you the whole way through. The depth of connection to our reality with so many symbolisms of society and our children within it. Truly thought provoking, breeding so many conversations, a real must see. See more Cathy O Aug 4 World-renowned music video director Emil Nava (Ed Sheeran, Dua Lipa, Post Malone, Rihanna…) is, quite simply, a magical storyteller. For his first feature film, he extends his lens to a theme that clearly resonate deeply with him, as he immerses viewers in a world of teenage angst, fear, love and existential loneliness. Both beautiful and harrowing, “Snorkeling” follows protagonists Michael and Jameson, two high schoolers whose budding romance is steeped in a highly addictive hallucinogenic street drug that makes them feel invincible and hyper-connected. The story weaves real-life soul-baring - and some mind-bending animated sequences - into its scripted arc, ultimately delivering messages of hope and resilience. The result is visceral; this one will stay with you for some time. See more Darryl G Jul 30 I’m reeling—like Pauline Kael after an early screening of Robert Altman’s brilliant Nashville. This is the possibility of cinema. A true master at work. Emil Nava has long been a visionary—an acclaimed director of music videos whose visual language, much like Jonathan Glazer’s early work with Jamiroquai, always felt cinematic, urgent, and alive. But now… he’s done it. He’s made the leap. From music to meaning. From beats to bodies-in-space. From rhythm to reverence. Just as Glazer evolved into the filmmaker behind The Zone of Interest—a film that stares history in the face and doesn’t blink—Emile has stepped into his own next chapter. And he’s done so with that same bravery: no gimmicks, no shortcuts, just raw vision and heart. I always knew he had this in him. But now the world sees it too.

See more Tim J Jul 26 Snorkeling explores loneliness and addiction in such a compelling way. “You are not a burden, you are loved” are sentiments we all need to accept no matter what hardships come. This film captures that well! See more Alyssa R @alyssarubio Jul 25 I walked into Snorkeling with no expectations and left genuinely moved. It’s one of those films that completely immerses you. Where you really feel the movie. There’s an artsy touch woven throughout, from the film style to the animation, and it’s all done beautifully. The color work stood out to me, it added to the emotion in a subtle but powerful way. Overall, this felt like a deeply artistic piece that captures very specific, almost unexplainable feelings. A quiet, creative kind of magic. If you’re looking for something that breaks the mold but still hits deep emotionally, this one’s worth your time. See more Read all reviews
