About Breathing Underwater
When Emma has to leave her picture-perfect life for a women's shelter, her unlikely friendship with a ragtag group of women pushes them all into a fight to take back their power.
Directed by Eric Lamhène, Breathing Underwater leans on a strong ensemble — Carla Juri, Véronique Tshanda Beya, Esperanza Martin González-Quevedo — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2024.
