| Description |
In a quick turnaround, Jamie finds herself married and migrated. To make things work, she channels the women in her life to find the answers. A convivial affair, Saltwater is a poignant account of home as she grapples with the gravity of being a wife 6060km away. Sit with strangers at her dinner table, participate in the preparation of a meal, and travel through memories of Singapore, childhood, and lessons learnt as Jamie remembers her mother, revealing the inner world of a woman as she responds to loss, grief, love and commitment. |
