Marina and Adrienne

Synopsis
On a ship amidst ferocious ocean waves, a crew member asserts that there are three categories of people: the living, the dead and those who are lost at sea. Inspired by Shakespeare’s "Pericles, Prince of Tyre," Marina and Adrienne are fugitives, lovers and women disguised as men. They face a test greater than the trials of the violent elements when one of them gives birth at sea.
