Shot from between 48 and 250 fps, Tides reverses Maya Deren's At Land, with the first shot instead of spewing Deren up onto the beach, instead sweeps Greenfield into the sea to turn words of Neitchze into a cinematic experience of "Far out glitter space and time
. . . joy, deeper than heart's agony. . . for all life wants eternity, wants deep eternity."
