31st Circom Annual Conference (2013)
This documentary dispels a myth about who were the pioneers of underwater photography. It is ofen thought that the German Haas Haas built the first camera housings in 1937. However, in the same year, a group of Slovakian teenagers, fascinated by the flora and fauna, built their own diving equipment and took underwater photos over a period of years. This hidden story tells the human passion and never-ending yearning to discover the unknown. The judges clearly loved this story, told wonderfully with archive moving image and evocative still photography.
